Aerosols are tiny particles in the air derived from natural surface sources (such as soil dust and sea spray) and human sources (vehicle exhausts, power station plumes, etc.). Aerosol particles present in the atmosphere tend to reflect sunlight back into space, causing cooling of the Earth's atmosphere. Yet some aerosols, for example from fires and old diesel cars, are made from carbon and actually absorb the Sun's light. This warms the atmosphere. Aerosols also have an indirect effect on the climate: for example each water droplet in a cloud is normally formed around an aerosol particle, so more aerosols in the atmosphere will also affect how clouds form. Despite all that is known about aerosols their overall effect is uncertain. It is unclear if they cool or heat the Earth. In this project we will use an aircraft jointly to make measurements of aerosol properties (such as size and composition) in two different UK campaigns + ADIENT-PLUME: Six flights will be performed over the North Sea in plumes downwind of UK cities to measure the evolution of aerosol particles + ADIENT-BUDGET: Six flights will be carried out mapping the impact of the UK sources on regional aerosol. In addition, three flights will be made in still conditions which favour the build up of aerosol pollutants In addition we will devote some flying hours to a European study that is trying to quantify aerosol properties on a European scale. The new data will be used to characterise aerosol properties typical of the UK and to test how well models describe the evolution of aerosols and their properties. Insights gained will then be used to improve our modelling capability of those processes which control aerosol development. Finally the new data on UK and European aerosol will be compared with existing aircraft, satellite and ground based measurements of other regions to provide a description of how strongly European aerosol effects light in the Earth's atmosphere compared to aerosol found over other important global source regions such as the Sahara desert and the Amazon basin.

气溶胶是来自自然表面源（例如土壤灰尘和海洋喷雾）和人类源（车辆排气，发电站李子等）的空气中的微小颗粒。大气中存在的气溶胶颗粒倾向于将阳光反射回太空，从而导致地球大气的冷却。然而，有些气溶胶，例如用火和旧柴油车制成，是用碳制成的，实际上吸收了太阳的光。这使气氛温暖。气溶胶也对气候具有间接影响：例如，云中的每个水滴通常在气溶胶颗粒周围形成，因此大气中更多的气溶胶也会影响云的形成方式。尽管对气溶胶有所了解，但他们的总体效果还是不确定的。目前尚不清楚它们是冷却还是加热地球。在这个项目中，我们将在两个不同的英国运动中使用飞机共同使用飞机来测量气溶胶特性（例如尺寸和组成） + Adient-Plume：将在北海在北海进行六次飞行，以衡量英国城市的羽流，以衡量Airosol颗粒的演变 + Airosol颗粒 + Adient Budget：六架飞行将使UK的驾驶员构图。此外，将在静止条件下进行三架飞行，这些航班有利于气溶胶污染物的积累，此外，我们将花一些时间用于一项欧洲研究，该研究试图在欧洲规模上量化气溶胶。新数据将用于表征英国典型的气溶胶特性，并测试模型如何描述气溶胶及其特性的演变。然后，获得的洞察力将用于提高我们控制气溶胶开发过程的建模能力。最后，将有关英国和欧洲气溶胶的新数据与其他地区的现有飞机，卫星和基于地面的测量结果进行比较，以描述与在其他重要的全球源地区（如撒哈拉沙漠沙漠和亚马逊盆地）中发现的气溶胶相比，地球大气中的强烈欧洲气溶胶影响如何。
