This project aims to provide fundamental process-level understanding of atmospheric aerosol processes over the Southern Ocean, a region that has a profound influence on the Australian and global climate and where climate models perform poorly. Comprehensive observations during 3 Southern Ocean voyages and land-based measurements will enhance our knowledge of aerosols and cloud formation in that region and provide much-needed data for improving global climate models. Expected outcomes include more accurate seasonal and latitudinal representations of Southern Ocean aerosol populations, properties and sources. The main benefit includes improvements in weather forecasting and future climate projection for Australia and the Southern Hemisphere.

该项目旨在提供对南大洋大气气溶胶过程的基本过程层面的了解，该地区对澳大利亚和全球气候有着深远的影响，并且气候模型在该地区表现不佳。 3次南大洋航行期间的综合观测和陆基测量将增强我们对该地区气溶胶和云形成的了解，并为改进全球气候模型提供急需的数据。预期结果包括南大洋气溶胶数量、特性和来源的更准确的季节和纬度表示。主要好处包括改善澳大利亚和南半球的天气预报和未来气候预测。
