Abstract:

Bioaerosols are among the most complex components in the atmosphere. Bioaerosols are relevant as important pathogens in crops and on trees, as aeroallergens in relation to human health and as catalysts for physical processes in relation to climate such as cloud formation processes. For decades the backbone in the European monitoring network of bioaerosols in relation to crop and human health has been simple impactors that trap the bioaerosols on a sticky surface followed by optical identification using microscopes. This approach is both time consuming, expensive and limiting with respect to the progress of science. The last five to ten years a range of new techniques have become available that enable a number of scientific breakthroughs in the general understanding of bioaerosols and how they interact with the environment. This COST action will establish an interdisciplinary network of experts currently involved in the detection of bioaerosols using both existing methods as well as upcoming technologies such as real or near real-time technologies from atmospheric chemistry and physics or eDNA methods used in molecular biology. A main objective is to critically address the barriers that limits the penetration of new methods in detection of bioaerosols. The cost action will stimulate both research and technological development, e.g. by developing approaches for integration of multiple methods for detecting bioaerosols and how to handle data using numerical approaches in a big data environment by using fungal spores and pollen as examples.

Assessment of the relationship between Biomass Burning typology and the Aerosol intensive optical properties from LIDAR measurements during smoke transport Call name: P 2 - SP 2.1 - Proiect experimental - demonstrativ

Abstract:

Poor air quality is a major societal concern, but development of proper policies is hampered by lack of high-quality data to support decision making. The aim of this project is the development of machine learning tools based on the analysis of remote sensing data. Specifically, the project will improve lidar (light detection and ranging) automatic classification algorithms for aerosol type by allowing the identification of biomass burning (BB) smoke from different vegetation types (different smoke typology). In previous work of the principal investigator, it was shown that smoke from different regions produced different optical properties. This outcome encouraged us to develop a more detailed analysis considering the BB by vegetation type. During the project, the smoke intensive optical properties (IOPs) measured by lidar (e.g. particle depolarization ratio and Ångström exponents) will be correlated to smoke typology allowing the development of better models for aerosol prediction. The analysis will be based on the long timeseries (2008-2018) of lidar measurements at INOE and exiting state-of-the-art algorithms that INOE developed in the framework of the European Infrastructure ACTRIS. The main steps of the methodology are the following:

-Reprocess the lidar data using Single Calculus Chain from EARLINET

-Identify the BB location which contributed to the smoke measurements using HYSPLIT backtrajectory and FIRMS database

-Collect the land cover data from satellites for the regions identified for fires

-Employ the cluster analysis in order to group the fires into homogenized areas from vegetation type point of view; for each cluster, estimate the land cover index

-Assess the quantification between BB typology and IOPs

The project is fully aligned with Romanian Smart Specialization Strategy, bringing INOE’s classification algorithm to a higher TRL, allowing it to be tested by INOE’s industrial partners.

Abstract:

The project aims to identify the sources of aerosols in Romania and to characterize them from chemical and optical point of view. This assessment will improve the understanding of atmospheric particles behaviors, including their vertical distribution and will increase the knowledge and data availability regarding aerosols properties and sources in Eastern Europe, mainly the submicronic fraction. Evaluation and quantification of aerosols characteristics are very challenging due to complexity of the particles, generation processes and multiple transformations encountered during air masses transport. In Romania only sparse information is available for the aerosols properties, their chemical components and sources, which are extremely important to evaluate the air quality level and assess essential characteristics influencing climate-relevant parameters.

A multi-instrument approach is necessary in order to fully characterize the aerosols, to evaluate the vertical distribution, the size, shape, concentrations and internal components. During this project complex and state of the art instruments (aerosol chemical speciation monitor, multiwavelength depolarization lidar, aethalometer, nephelometer, etc) from the Remote Sensing department of INOE will be used in synergy to overcome the lack of understanding of the local aerosols properties. A combination of active remote sensing (lidar) and in situ (mass spectrometry) data will enable the characterization of aerosol dynamics and the quantification of aerosols contribution from long-range transport to the total aerosol loading. Also the pollutants influence on air quality and climate-related properties (biomass burning, dust, continental polluted, industrial local or long-range transported aerosols) will be addressed during this project, including particle loadings, composition, and sources.

Abstract:

The project ‘Comprehensive Approach to support Precision Agriculture and environmental management through satellite technologies and classic methods of investigation – CAPA’, addresses a major direction of the 21st century, namely, smart agriculture, bringing new insights into how the climate affects the phenological cycle of crops (through the occurrence of extreme events) and it also contributes to understanding the role of different air pollutants (such as greenhouse gases) in crop development. The project proposes the realization of synergies of the scientific activities integrating data on the complex eco-agro-system-culture relations, obtained by applying a conglomerate of methods and techniques (space technologies, the study of pollutants at the level of air, water, soil and plants), for a modern management of agricultural crops, in the context of intelligent agriculture. At the international level, smart agriculture is also based on the optimized management of the inputs according to the real needs of the crops, for their management and the reduction of the use of fertilizers, fungicides, pesticides and water resources. At the national level, the exploitation of satellite records in the field of agricultural management has not yet a significant spread, being used mainly in applications dedicated to environmental protection, forestry, territorial planning or in the military field. In this context, the project proposes the application and integration of spatial technologies together with in situ and ex situ analyses in the intelligent management of agriculture to monitor certain types of agricultural crops (from a pilot site), thus allowing the development of a successful model for better capitalization. of available resources.

Abstract:

The goal of the project is to develop an advanced aerosol climatology for Romania, starting from a pilot region centered on Bucharest area, covering the full period (2010 – present) of aerosol remote sensing and in-situ measurements from Romanian Atmospheric Research 3D Observatory (RADO), Bucharest-Magurele, using an expert analysis complemented with state-of-the-art deep learning techniques. The RADO measurements for this area will be supplemented by satellite measurements and improved modelling results.

The project is a collaboration of the National Institute of Research and Development for Optoelectronics (INOE), Remote Sensing Department, and the Politehnica University of Bucharest (UPB), SpeeD Research Laboratory.

In the proposed project, the PT-PCCA-2013-4-1798 project MOBBE (“Computational Model for Prediction of the Biomass Burning Emissions and their Impact”) concept will be improved, extended to the most common tropospheric aerosols and complemented with a machine learning analysis. The project proposes innovative concepts, including synergistic expert analysis and deep learning techniques, fulfilling also the Romanian Smart Specialization Strategy on Analysis, Management and Security of Big Data. Extending the biomass burning aerosol climatology to all tropospheric aerosols, the project will improve significantly the characterization of aerosols and their impact on climate, air quality and cloud-precipitation processes, moving from experimental level (MOBBE) to a higher technological maturity level (validated technology in the laboratory). The validated results will be made available for use in other studies of the impact of aerosols on climate. The project outcomes will also contribute conceptually to the Copernicus effort to assimilate the ground-based remote-sensing measurements in Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS).

Abstract:

It is well known that exposure to aerosols exerts a negative impact on human health and that aerosols affect climate and the environment. These effects are dependent on the composition and sources of these fine atmospheric aerosols (particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter below 2.5 µm, PM2.5). The main challenge of the Action is to consistently assess their spatial variability (across Europe), their temporal variability (at a one hour time resolution or better), their seasonality (using long term datasets), their phenomenology (chemical composition) and their sources. To this end many research groups and some air quality monitoring networks in Europe and across the world have acquired recently-developed chemical composition measurement instrumentation. These include the Aerosol Chemical Speciation Monitor (ACSM) (based on Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (AMS) technology), which measures non-refractory ammonium, nitrate, sulfate, chloride, and organic mass, and instruments that measure the refractory black carbon, such as the Aethalometer and Multi Angle Absorption Photometer (MAAP). These new high time resolution techniques, which chemically characterize the aerosols, are capable of operating for long time periods and have only been available in 5-10 years. The processing and interpretation of the data from these instruments has matured to a stage where harmonized across Europe is now possible; this will be achieved by a network built through the present Action to jointly develop the capacity for the interpretation of the measurements gathered using these techniques. The outcomes of the Action will be relevant for air quality modellers and policy makers.

Abstract:

One of the most critical issues of urban air quality in Europe, particularly in Central and Eastern Europe is the frequent incidence of high levels of respirable particulate matter (PM10/PM2.5).

Direct links have been established between the exposure to high concentrations of particulate matter and cardiovascular and respiratory premature deaths, as well as increased sickness, such as childhood respiratory diseases.

Air pollution as a whole, as well as particulate matter as a separate component of the air pollution mixture, have been classified recently by the World Health Organization as carcinogenic.

Furthermore, the specific hazard associated with particulate matter is generally linked to the presence of toxic metals and hundreds of carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic organic compounds.

The objective of the study is to investigate the contribution of waste burning to the air quality and to examine the spatial distribution of the potential waste burning sources in several locations in Hungary and Romania by means of mobile measurements and by the analysis of tracer compounds in collected samples.

Based on the spatial distribution of potential waste burning sources the link between the waste burning and poverty as well as the economic activity in the area will be investigated.

Abstract:

ECARS addresses the challenges of the Twinning programme by tackling deficiencies and networking gaps between

INOE, a very dynamic research institution in Romania, and internationally-leading counterparts at EU level. The

activity will strengthen the excellence of INOE Center for atmospheric remote sensing and will stimulate high-level

environmental and climate research, conform to Romanian Smart Specialization Strategy. This will be achieved by

consolidating INOE’s links with four highly esteemed research institutions, each one having high-level expertise in

specific areas: MPI-M (ground-based remote sensing), DLR (airborne remote sensing), NOA (satellite remote sensing)

and CNR-IMAA (data exploitation). The coordination and support actions address specific areas of atmospheric

remote sensing where the expertise of INOE will be strengthen, increasing its innovation capacity and research profile.

The focus is on cutting edge passive and active remote sensing technologies, good practices and data synergy, leading

to better data exploitation for environmental and climate research. Transfer of know-how is performed in a larger

context of training through research, with ECARS complementing undergoing projects in HORIZON2020 and ESA

Earth Observation programs. ECARS' goal is to create a collaborative framework around INOE for sharing specialized

knowledge, brainstorming for new ideas and elaborating scientific publications. Measures to maximize the impact

involve short-term staff exchanges and on-site training, expert visits, virtual training, technical workshops, summer

schools, webinars and outreach activities. ECARS is envisaged to increase by 50% the annual number of scientific

papers published by INOE, and the impact factor by 25%. Knowledge will be further spread through national Master

and PhD programs, reinforcing the atmospheric remote sensing activities in Romania and enhancing the related S&T

capacities.ECARS is supported by WMO-GAW, GEO, ACTRIS and ESA/ESTEC.

Abstract:

AiRFRAME (Aerosol properties retrieval from remote sensing spectroscopic measurements) represents the Romanian contribution to international efforts in setting up a ground-based network of monitoring stations which will be used for the calibration and validation of different product regarding the atmosphere during the commissioning and operational phase of existing and future ESA space missions.

Understanding climate change includes the understanding of the chemistry related to climate and the chemistry–climate interactions on regional scale as well as for the entire System Earth on the global scale which is one of the great challenges in atmospheric science today and still a strongly developing field in climate modelling. Satellites provide the primary resources of obtaining a global perspective and comparing different parts of the globe. But long-term ground-based observational databases are essential to validate their products.

Even when the satellites will be fully operational, the Contributing Missions will continue to be essential, delivering complementary data to ensure that a broad range of observational requirements is satisfied. Information on atmospheric variables could be provided in support of European policies. Services could include the monitoring of air quality, water vapour, aerosols and solar radiation as part of climate monitoring.

This initiative is targeting mostly the calibration-validation activities of Sentinel 5 Precursor (TROPOMI instrument), referring specifically to the NO2 and aerosol products, but also are expected important contributions to ADM-Aeolus, EarthCARE, Sentinel 4, Sentinel 5 precursor and Sentinel 5 missions. AiRFRAME’s objectives are twofold: on one hand, to improve the state-of-the-art monitoring station in Romania, based on existing capacities and upgrades; on the other hand, to extend the number of parameters available from Pandora-2S systems and to increase the potential of calibration/validation activities of ESA space missions. Subsequent scientific objectives referring to the study of horizontal and vertical gradients in a highly polluted area, correlation with meteorology and sources, will be also addressed.

The general objective of the AiRFRAME’s project is to improve the capability of ESA mission’s calibration/validation activities using ground based differential optical absorption spectrometric measurements. A software prototype will be developed during the project implementation, dedicated to Pandora systems retrievals of aerosols properties.

The project is targeting the aerosol retrieval from Pandora system, which is on highly interest in the scientific community, but not yet developed by the network. The number of parameters available in the Pandonia network will be then increased, with aerosol properties. The software represents an original work worldwide from which can benefit all Pandora network systems and other differential absorption spectrometric measurements. Part of the technology proposed to be included here have been already proposed in the literature for other DOAS systems, but now will be extended to other kind of instruments and spectrometric bands.

The consortium operates a large variety of in situ and remote sensing instruments to measure gases and particulates in the atmosphere. Between these an direct-sun DOAS is in use, which is the most accurate technique for deriving column NO2 (C(NO2)) from ground-based instruments conform to the recent studies. Diurnal and seasonal variability will be studied both for the NO2 (with the PANDORA system) and aerosols (with the aerosol lidar).

The Pandora system is part of Pandora network, which ensure a proper utilization of the instruments and larger coverage. The NO2 ground-based monitoring will follow the rules of the existing community, in order to ensure a proper implementation of the measurement and data handling procedures.

The vertical and horizontal variability of the NO2 and aerosols fields in the area of Bucharest will be investigated, as a possible source of error to be included in the TROPOMI’s level 2 products. Complex situations within a satellite pixel area such as: partly clouds, spatial gradients, inhomogeneous terrain, high aerosol loadings, lead to more challenges to the TROPOMI’s Level-2 retrieval algorithms. Bucharest is, from this point of view, a perfect site to test the accuracy and the sensitivity of the retrievals, because of the density of the sources, considerable aerosol loads and changing weather patterns.

Abstract:

Education and research represents the means by which a society have to build knowledge which will lead to prosperity, sustainability and personal development for every citizen.

In the current period, as shown in international studies there are some concerns relating to poor performance of students in basic skills. To understand the importance of good science education, we should think how science contribute to our everyday lives. The benefits and results from a scientist's work have an impact on our daily activities.It is confirmed that hands-on practicals in laboratories, visits outside school and non-formal learning environments are the most enjoyable aspects of studying the sciences. It is often argued that practical work is central to teaching and learning in science and that good quality practical work helps develop pupils’ understanding of scientific processes and concepts.

Generally, science centers aim is to connect the general public to science, giving them the opportunity to explore scientific and technical worlds and ask questions. There are many roles that can be assigned to a science center from firsthand experience to encouraging curiosity. Practical work undertaken inside the Science Centers like hand-on experiments, demonstrations and more other alike activities are important ingredients in learning science and in the same time can increase students sense of ownership and motivation. This experiential learning under scientists guiding will lead for sure to a comprehensive practical knowledge of learners.

The present project proposal focuses on creating an innovative model for out of school science learning combined with an interactive digital platform - eScience Center. This goal will be accomplished by developing the Science Center Network SCINET which will gather four major physics institutes (IFA, INOE, INFLPR, IFIN HH) and three companies (PMCC, SIVECO Romania, MEDNET RESEARCH). The three main objectives that will lead to SCINET existence are: Creation, organization and operationalization of SCINET; Development of creative and experiential capacities of highschool students to stimulate the interest in scientific research and innovation by creating two models (I model - Innovative Model for Science Learning INSCI; II model - Digital platform eScience Center); Promote the role of science among highschool students, transnational cooperation, exchange of experience and knowledge, network joining in order to increase visibility and to ensure long-term sustainability.

Fulfilling all these objectives will contribute to bridge the gap between formal and non-formal education and will promote science learning at pre-university level.

Unlike many other countries, Romania don't have a Science Center Network, SCINET being the first Science Center Network in Romania. Considering this, the two innovative models (INSCI and eScience Center) that will be created, tested and implemented represent a major need for the network to operate in a professional manner and to have the expected results.

SCINET will be a cooperative structure where partners will contribute with their respective strengths, at the same time receiving incentives for their own activities. The network will have an important role for today's world science and maybe to lay the fondation for future science careers.

The two models and their success criteria: The project will contribute directly, at national level, to the design and development educational models: I model (off campus) - Innovative Model for Nonformal Science Learning InSci and II model (online model) eScience Center - associated to science centers activities. At European level, the project will provide an inside view on the set-up and running of several science centers grown in connection to some major research institutes and, in the mean time, will offer information on the implementation of a national network of science centers.

Abstract:

The pollution from biomass burning (including wildfires) combined with urban pollution from human activities, the main sources of primary aerosols (fine particles, respirable), can have a significant impact on human health and on climate at local, regional and global scale, through the emissions of high concentrations of aerosol particles containing organic and inorganic matter and black carbon. 40% of the global emission of black carbon comes from biomass burning. The aerosols emitted can became condensation nuclei in the process of cloud formation influencing cloud radiative properties. As of now, cloud formation processes and the influence of aerosols are not fully understood and lead therefore to significant uncertainties in weather forecasts and climate change scenarios.

The purpose of the project MOBBE (Computational Model for Prediction of the Biomass Burning Emissions and their Impact) is to quantify and to predict the effects of the aerosols from biomass burning and their impact on two major environmental issues: (a) air quality and (b) climate and meteorology at local, regional and global scale. The project aims to investigate the potential sources and the properties of aerosols from biomass burning, urban aerosols and long-range transport aerosols over Romania performing a first research case study in the Bucharest area, using improved inversion algorithms. The results (a new parametrization scheme of the physical processes of the biomass burning aerosols, sources and properties) will be implemented during the project in the FLEXPART aerosol dispersion model based on the Lagrangean particle dispersion mechanism. As meteorological input data, the model will use new data from COSMO model. Anthropogenic and natural emissions of biomass burning will be compared with the daily analysis and the fine mode aerosol optical depth (AOD) at 550 nm provided by the radio-spectrometer MODIS launched by NASA on the Aqua and Terra satellites, MAAC II, and with an independent dataset of AOD from the AERONET network. All the above information will be integrated in a “MOBBE Web Tool”.

The project will improve significantly the quantification of the present and future impact of biomass-burning emissions on the composition of the Earth’s atmosphere. This project will also provide relevant information concerning the aerosols radiative contribution in the context of climate change at global level. The data will be integrated in the ACTRIS-EBAS database.

The MOBBE research project is an interdisciplinary environmental research infrastructure based on continuous measurements, two intensive experimental field campaigns (summer and winter campaign) and eight flight hours of a research aircraft, that integrates in-situ monitors, ground-based and airborne observations, with a detailed analysis of satellite data and numerical modeling results. The satellite data are provided by the MODIS instruments from the satellites Terra and Aqua, by the Caliop lidar from the satellite CALIPSO and by EUMETCast.

MOBBE is a national consortium of two national institutes of research, National Institute of R&D for Optoelectronics (CO-RADO) and National Institute for Aerospace Research “Elie Carafoli” (P1-INCAS), the National Meteorological Administration (P2-NMA) and a service provider and instruments manufacturing company related to environmental monitoring (P3-ESYRO). All partners will join their expertise, infrastructure and efforts in order to develop an innovative methodology and a new powerful modelling tool “MOBBE Web Tool” for air monitoring, available for atmospheric and environmental research groups, as well as for environmental agencies, urban air quality agencies, industries, and decision makers.

Abstract:

Hail events represent an important natural disaster associated with great economic losses, especially in agriculture. The most vulnerable regions in Romania are in Central – South, where there is a large probability that convective clouds are formed. Although hailstorms affect crop yield and/or quality dramatically, 40% of the total agricultural land is not protected against hail.

Anti-hail rockets program is based on dispersing pyrotechnical mixtures of silver-iodide. They act as condensation nuclei, creating a large number of small hail particles which melt and fall in form of drops. Nevertheless, it is extremely difficult to validate the effect of the seeding, due to superposition of strong natural atmospheric variations.

By combining different remote sensing instruments, a much better estimation of the microphysical cloud properties can be made, including the efficiency of the AgI dispersion and hail crystals modification.

The main goal of LIRA's project is to investigate cloud transformations as consequence of seeding, and determine best operational procedures to enhance efficiency and reduce side effects in case of hail suppression, using a smart combination of remote sensing techniques (passive and active): lidar, radar, microwave radiometry, satellite imagery. LIRA aims at: a) Design of an experimental model using radar, lidar and microwave radiometry to monitor ice formation inside clouds, before, during and after cloud seeding; b) Identification of application-driven suitable parameters for efficient cloud seeding, based on modeled and experimental data; c) Increasing visibility, protecting intellectual rights.

This project brings together research, operational and economical institutions to produce new knowledge and introduce new techniques and methods for early warning of the hailfall, objective selection of the seeding parameters and quantitative assessment of the intervention's efficiency. Our approach is to actually measure inside the cloud. We will use the synergy between radar, lidar and microwave radiometer, but we add the depolarization capability of the lidar, which will permit, by combination with radar, to monitor remotely the changes in the ice / liquid water content of the cloud. We will visualize the dispersion of the seeding agent inside the volume before activation, to look for correlations between seeding parameters (target location, rocket speed, time of spreading the agent, etc.) and efficiency in suppressing hail. Original work will be done for the design and upgrade of the depolarization lidar, but also for the development of data processing and analysis algorithms. The possibility of forecasting hail based on EUMETCAST data will also be analyzed. Several algorithms will be improved by direct validation with measurements (retrieval of wind speed from radar - validation with sodar, cloud height from EUMETCAST - validation from lidar, cloud particle depolarization from lidar - intervalidation with radar). Moreover, we will put our knowledge at the service of the society, by transferring experimental techniques to operational procedures.

Apart from the scientific knowledge which will be achieved during the experiment (subject of 6 communications at prestigious international conferences and 4 ISI papers), LIRA intends to elaborate 1 patent, related to the algorithm for combining radar and lidar data in order to extract the 3D map of the mixed clouds.

By combination of techniques, expertise and knowledge, LIRA will bring weather modification from empirically accepted to scientifically proved. Several noticeable results are envisaged: >>elaboration of a new technology to dynamically monitor cloud seeding effects; >>advances in understanding physical phenomena associated to cloud seeding; >>development of an experimental method for the objective assessment of cloud seeding efficiency; >>identification of opportunities to extend the methodology from hail suppression to rainfall generation.

Abstract:

The aerosols are important due to their effects on climate, hydrological cycle, health, visibility, deposition to ecosystems and crops but they are also one of the poorly understood issues related to the atmosphere. Up to now the local aerosols properties are not fully understood and characterized. Simulations and models were used to derive their optical properties, but from these results are difficult to choose the physical possible one.

The project aims to characterize the aerosols from optical, microphysical and chemical point of view. This project will contribute to the reduction of uncertainties in calculating aerosols microphysical properties by using measured parameters of local aerosols and full description of size distributions against the ones simulated by Mischenko code.

The main novelty element of this project consist in the synergetic use of in-situ measurement instruments along with numerical simulation of scattering parameters to collect information regarding specific characteristics of Romanian aerosol and analysis of physical-chemical parameters of the aerosol.
