The TROPOMI instrument onboard the Copernicus SENTINEL-5 Precursor satellite is a nadir-viewing, imaging spectrometer that provides global measurements of atmospheric properties and constituents on a daily basis. It is contributing to monitoring air quality and climate, providing critical information to services and decision makers.
The instrument uses passive remote sensing techniques by measuring the top of atmosphere solar radiation reflected by and radiated from the earth and its atmosphere. The four spectrometers of TROPOMI cover the ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS), Near Infra-Red (NIR) and Short Wavelength Infra-Red (SWIR) domains of the electromagnetic spectrum. The operational trace gas products generated at DLR on behave ESA are: Ozone (O3), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), Formaldehyde (HCHO), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Methane (CH4), together with clouds and aerosol properties.
This product displays the sulphur dioxide (SO2) concentration around the globe. Sulphur dioxide enters the atmosphere through volcanic eruptions and human-related activities. Daily observations are binned onto a regular latitude-longitude grid.
This product is created in the scope of the project INPULS. The DLR INPULS project develops (a) innovative retrieval algorithms and processors for the generation of value-added products from the atmospheric Copernicus missions Sentinel-5 Precursor, Sentinel-4, and Sentinel-5, (b) cloud-based (re)processing systems, (c) improved data discovery and access technologies as well as server-side analytics for the users, and (d) data visualization services.
Aerosols are an indicator for episodic aerosol plumes from dust outbreaks, volcanic ash, and biomass burning. Daily observations are binned onto a regular latitude-longitude grid. The Aerosol layer height is provided in kilometres.

Das Projekt "Transformation von partikelförmigen Kraftfahrzeugemissionen und deren Vorläufern im Nahfeld der Quelle" wird/wurde gefördert durch: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: Leibniz-Institut für Troposphärenforschung e.V..Es soll die Verdünnung des Abgases von Kraftfahrzeugen im Straßenverkehr und besonders die dabei erfolgende Transformation der Aerosolpartikel unter atmosphärischen Bedingungen untersucht werden. Um dieses Ziel zu realisieren, wird ein Kofferanhänger mit den notwendigen Messgeräten ausgestattet und von den zu untersuchenden Fahrzeugen gezogen. Der Aerosoleinlass an diesem Anhänger wird variabel angebracht sein, um Messungen in verschiedenen Abständen vom Auspuffrohr zu ermöglichen. Ziel ist es, gemessene Unterschiede zwischen Immissions- und Emissionsmessungen zu quantifizieren und damit beobachtete Differenzen zwischen Messungen am Motorprüfstand und solchen an einem Standort an der Straße soweit wie möglich zu erklären. Weiterhin soll der Einfluss der äußeren Bedingungen, wie meteorologische Parameter (Temperatur, relative Feuchte, etc.) und der Geschwindigkeit des Fahrzeuges quantifiziert werden. Ein wichtiger Bestandteil ist dabei auch die Charakterisierung der Mischungs- und Verdünnungsprozesse zwischen Auspuff und Probennahme. Diese soll mit zeitlich hochaufgelösten Messungen von Temperatur, Geschwindigkeit und Feuchte der Luft realisiert werden. Zusätzlich zu diesen experimentellen Arbeiten soll, wenn sinnvoll, im weiteren Verlauf des Projektes die Transformation der Partikel mit einem Modell simuliert werden.
Das Projekt "Forschergruppe (FOR) 1525: INUIT - Ice Nuclei research UnIT, Heterogende Eisnukleation ausgelöst durch poröse Materialien" wird/wurde gefördert durch: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: Universität Bielefeld, Fakultät für Chemie, Arbeitsgruppe Physikalische Chemie II.Die Nukleation von Eispartikeln spielt eine wichtige Rolle bei der Wolken- und Niederschlagsbildung, mit Konsequenten für die atmosphärische Chemie, die Wolkenphysik und das Erdklima. Für eine Quantifizierung und Vorhersage des Einflusses von Wolken in Wettervorhersage- und Klimamodellen muss die Bildung von Eispartikeln daher in einer realistischen Art und Weise beschrieben werden. Einer der wichtigen Bildungsmechanismen ist dabei die heterogene Eisnukleation im Immersionsmodus, bei dem Eis an der Oberfläche eines in einem wässrigen Tröpfchen suspendierten Eiskeims - zum Beispiel eines Mineralstaub- Partikels - gebildet wird. Wir werden im Rahmen dieses Forschungsprojekts zahlreiche Gefrierexperimente im Immersionsmodus durchführen. So werden eine Reihe verschiedener, als Aerosolpartikel in der Atmosphäre vorkommende Materialien auf ihre Eisnukleationseigenschaften hin untersucht werden. Insbesondere sollen hier die Temperatur- und Zeitabhängigkeit der von diesen Materialien ausgelösten Eisnukleation quantifiziert werden. Dabei werden wir spezielles Augenmerk auf die systematische Untersuchung der von porösen Materialien ausgelösten Eisnukleation legen. Es sollen sowohl synthetische Materialien wie beispielsweise mesoporöse Silikate untersucht werden, als auch natürlich vorkommende Materialien wie etwa mikroporöse Zeolithe.
