PREAMBLE
WHEREAS the science of climate change and air quality requires understanding of spatial and temporal variability of shortlived atmospheric constituents;
WHEREAS deeper understanding of the driving forces of climate change and air pollution requires observation of the fourdimensional distribution of short-lived atmospheric constituents;
WHEREAS deeper understanding of the atmospheric variability of short-lived atmospheric constituents requires knowledge of the complex processes driving their interactions;
WHEREAS the science of climate change and air quality requires secured access to long-term observational data provided with adequate precision and geographical coverage;
WHEREAS improving knowledge and technologies for the science of climate change and air quality requires access to highly instrumented research platforms in natural and controlled atmospheres;
WHEREAS ACTRIS provides a unique expertise in metrology of aerosols, clouds and reactive trace gases, in the provision of data related to short-lived atmospheric constituents variability and in the procedures for accessing this information;
WHEREAS ACTRIS data products are required for completeness of the Earth observation system for climate and air quality and contribute to resolve the uncertainties in climate and Earth system models toward the development of sustainable solutions for responding to environmental challenges;
WHEREAS ACTRIS intends to raise the level of technology used in the distributed research infrastructure and the quality of services offered to a very wide community of users, involving partners from the private sector;
WHEREAS ACTRIS also promotes the training of operators and users and enhances the linkage between research, education and innovation in the field of atmospheric and climate science;
