Objectives for GALIONSupports Task 7.84 of
GAW IP
Objectives for GALIONSupports Task 7.84 of
GAW IP1. Detection of long-term man-made trends in the
concentration of greenhouse gases and aerosols 2. Better environmental assessments3. Better quantification of pollution sources and their
atmospheric pathways4. Reliable global concentration fields5. Better prediction of UV intensities6. Direct observation of plumes from major events7. Improved regional forecasts of both weather and air
quality

Initially, follow the EARLINET schedule (Mon-Thurs)
Strawperson suggestion:
Base on AOD needs. Should be able to retrieve AOD of 0.05
