The Regional Center The Regional Center is jointly managed by AEMET and the BSC-CNS. It is located in Barcelona, at BSC- CNS premises

Objetives of the Regional Center  Lead the implementation and operation of an integrated system of observation and prediction  Identify and improve observational and forecast products  Promote the creation and improvement of observational networks in developing countries.  Facilitate user access to information  Create and maintain a website  Create alternative systems tailored to users  Build capacity of countries to use the products supplied

Monitor atmospheric dust Validate products from other observing systems Validate and verify model predictions Data assimilation into numerical models Ground-based In-situ (AQ monitoring stations) Indirect Observations: visibility Sun photometers (AERONET) Lidar, ceilometers Satellite-based GEO LEO, MEO Specific objectives Observing systems Integrated observational system

In-situ observations (AQ stations)  Rural background stations  Near-real-time data

Visibility Tamanrasset, Algeria, Feb. 2007

Lidar - Ceilometer An elastic lidar and a ceilometer work following the same principle, but  The aim of LIDAR is to measure backscattering by molecules and aerosol.  The aim of ceilometers is to measure backscattering by clouds EARLINET Potenza, 26 June 2006 Ceilometer CHM15kx (manufactured by JenOptik)
