Understanding the key processes driving the climate system and reducing the uncertainties in climate sensitivity is crucial if we want to improve climate projections. The Southern Ocean is an area where there are large biases in the representation of short and long wave fluxes and in the surface temperture - it is thought that poor representation of clouds, both at the micro- and at the macro-scale, is responsible for these errors. This proposal will use a novel multi-scale, multi-platform approach over a variety of temporal and spatial scales that will improve understanding of aerosol and cloud microphysics over regions with maximum climate model bias, namely both the Southern Ocean and coastal areas around Antarctica, leading to better representation of these processes in climate models.Observations will be made at land stations in the Antarctic and Sub Antarctic as well measurements on the BAS ship that crosses Southern Ocean many times in the course of a season and observations using BAS's instrumented aircraft. The aim of the observations is to identify the compostions and source of the aerosols that act as cloud forming nuclei. This information will be used to improve the representation of clouds in numerical models.

如果我们想改进气候预测，那么了解驱动气候系统的关键过程并减少气候敏感性的不确定性至关重要。南大洋是一个在短波通量和长波通量以及地表温度的表示上存在很大偏差的区域——人们认为，微观和宏观尺度上云的表示不佳是导致这一现象的原因。这些错误。该提案将在各种时间和空间尺度上使用一种新颖的多尺度、多平台方法，这将增进对气候模型偏差最大的地区（即南大洋和南极洲周围沿海地区）的气溶胶和云微物理的理解，从而在气候模型中更好地表示这些过程。将在南极洲和亚南极洲的陆地站进行观测，并对在一个季节中多次穿越南大洋的 BAS 船进行测量，并使用BAS 的仪表飞机。观测的目的是确定作为云形成核的气溶胶的成分和来源。该信息将用于改进数值模型中云的表示。
