Aerosol_cci legacy
Thomas Popp , Gerrit de Leeuw, Simon Pinnock
International aerosol community in 2010
• Growing community • with aerosol specific sensors in the last decade, but
also use of non-specific sensors for aerosols • with growing number of algorithms, variables
• Some bi-lateral collaboration
• Situation in Europe • many small groups working on aerosol retrievals • little coordination • few algorithms at competitive level
Unifying the European aerosol (retrieval) community

Consistent 17-year aerosol record
• tremendeous improvement of European algorithms to competitive level
• create consistent 17-year multi-sensor long-term time series of total and fine-mode AOD
• user case studies provide critical evaluation of products

Create international network
• AEROSAT • International Satellite Aerosol Science Network • initiated by Aerosol_cci • 4th meeting Beijing, 22-24 October 2016
• 100+ participants, many new from Asia + Africa • Global forum for in-depth discussion of the retrieval problem • Close interaction with global modeling community • CCI products received wide exposure to the international
aerosol modeling community

slide 6
Inspire international teams to re-think retrievals
• Algorithm experiments and round robin exercise • benefit from open exchange • combine algorithms (ensemble) • Iterative evolution cycle
• First demonstration of uncertainties / error propagation • at pixel-level • validated as far as possible

slide 7
International: Set stage for future work
• Cross-ECV • demonstrate aerosol-cloud consistency • concept of 2D joint histograms
• Start developing / evaluating new aerosol variables highly needed by GCOS / AEROCOM modelers
• dust • absorption • layer height
• Extend long-term time series with SLSTR, (OLCI, 3MI)

slide 8
Start to become part of Copernicus Climate Service
• Copernicus Climate Change Service • Proposal for first contract (2 years) positively evaluated • Focus on routine production tasks • Aerosol_cci team effort enabled development of quality
products for operational services
• builds on remaining algorithm innovation in CCI • would benefit largely on long-term from further algorithm
development in CCI+
