Understanding the processes that shape the atmosphere

Understanding atmospheric composition and its evolution

To improve the scientific understanding of atmospheric composition and the physical and chemical processes governing the Earth's atmosphere.

Atmospheric composition research at APCG focuses on reactive gases, aerosols and atmospheric chemistry, investigating the processes controlling their formation, evolution and interactions across multiple spatial and temporal scales.

Our research contributes to advances in atmospheric science, climate research, and environmental modelling.
