Major Field of Science: | Natural Sciences | Field Category: | Other Natural Sciences | Keywords: | dust;microphysics;source regions;climate;socio-economic impacts;environmental health;Earth observations;airborne research;remote sensing | Issue Date: | 27-Oct-2025 | Source: | Environmental and Earth Sciences Proceedings,2025, vol. 35, no.1, pp.1-7 | Volume: | 35 | Issue: | 1 | Start page: | 1 | End page: | 7 | Journal: | Environmental and Earth Sciences Proceedings | Abstract: | We present an example of how a doctoral network can bring together multidisciplinary expertise and novel scientific advances in atmospheric dust. This network (Dust-DN) has started operations and is a strategic alliance of high-profile partners, able to leverage unique facilities for atmospheric research and innovative space missions. The network aims to improve our understandings of dust processes and microphysics, identify the signature of source regions, address the socio-economic impacts of dust transport and improve the quantification of the role of dust in the climate system. The first results have already been achieved and are shown here, and many more are expected to follow. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/36235 | DOI: | 10.3390/eesp2025035078 | Rights: | Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International | Type: | Conference Paper | Affiliation : | The Cyprus Institute Institute for Astronomy, Astrophysics, Space Applications and Remote Sensing, National Observatory of Athens (IAASARS/NOA) Center for Sci-Tech Research in Earth System and Energy—CREATE Technical University of Darmstadt Physikalisch-Meteorologisches Observatorium Davos, World Radiation Center (PMOD/WRC) Institute of Meteorology and Climate Research, Troposphere Research (IMK-TRO) Barcelona Supercomputing Centre Catalan Institute for Research and Advanced Studies University of Reading Planetary Health Lab, Centro Académico Clínico do Alentejo World Meteorological Organization National Technical University Of Athens Science Directorate, Met Office Center of Allergy and Environment Ciemat—Plataforma Solar de Almería EY Cyprus, Climate Change and Sustainability Services Engine Environmental Protection, Rolls-Royce plc LOA—Laboratoire d’Optique Atmosphérique, CNRS The Environmental and Geophysical Sciences Lab, Remote Sensing Developments, Generalized Retrieval of Atmosphere and Surface Properties Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya ERATOSTHENES Centre of Excellence Laboratory of Atmospheric Physics Atmospheric Chemistry Department, Max Planck Institute for Chemistry Institute of Atmospheric Sciences and Climate (ISAC-CNR) Climate and Atmosphere Research Centre Évora University Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) Helmholtzzentrum München Technical University of Munich Université de Lille Khalifa University Aristotle University of Thessaloniki |
