EMME-CARE

The ACCEPT project, which CARE-C of The Cyprus Institute is a partner of, has been successfully concluded. The final meeting of the project, during which the project partners presented the final deliverables, took place on 12 April, 2024 at the Cyprus Institute premises, in Nicosia. You can find out more about ACCEPT, and watch the summary video produced by the consortium in the news article below: https://lnkd.in/eXV-QF38

The Environmental Observation Department (EOD) of CARE-C at The Cyprus Institute has initiated the SPring particles In CYprus- SPICY campaign, which began in early April and will continue until the end of May at three of the four Cyprus Atmospheric Observatory (CAO) stations of CARE-C. This intensive campaign aims to investigate a phenomenon of formation of new particles in the springtime atmosphere in Cyprus. The campaign instrumentation fleet is spanning to measure everything from emissions to cloud condensation nuclei, with a focus on high-frequency new particle formation events.

Our researchers at The Cyprus Institute have been monitoring the levels of dust during the current event we are experiencing in Cyprus. You can read more about it on the brief, informative news article they've put together:

Research scientists of the Cyprus Atmospheric Observatory (CAO), at CARE-C of The Cyprus Institute, have been closely monitoring the recent dust event in Cyprus, in real-time, using state-of-the-art remote sensing technology. The Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) levels have reached extreme values >0.8 highlighting the intensity of the event and the lidar observations show how the dust layer is extended from ground level up to ~7km in the beginning of the event.

We are delighted to announce that this year's Innovation in Atmospheric Measurement Techniques workshop, organised by CARE-C at The Cyprus Institute and three EU RIs working in the Atmospheric Measurements remit, namely ACTRIS-RI, ICOS - Integrated Carbon Observation System and IAGOS_RI, will take place on 27 June, 2024 and abstract submissions are now open!! You can find all the details on how to submit an abstract and/or register as a participant at our dedicated event page here: https://lnkd.in/ezhhH-ud #innovatmo24 #ENVRINNOV #Edu4Climate

Members of the Cyprus Atmospheric Observatory (CAO) team at CARE-C of The Cyprus Institute joined the effort of the Ίδρυμα Έρευνας και Καινοτομίας/Research and Innovation Foundation, on the occasion of Earth Day 2024, to raise awareness about climate change and its impacts, by delivering a presentation on this topic to high school students.

🔹 Το ύψος της βροχής που έπληξε πρόσφατα τα Ηνωμένα Αραβικά Εμιράτα ήταν τεράστιο, ωστόσο τέτοια φαινόμενα δεν είναι ασυνήθιστα στην περιοχή του Κόλπου, ανέφερε ο Αναπληρωτής Καθηγητής στο Ερευνητικό Κέντρο για την Κλιματική και Ατμοσφαιρική Έρευνα (CARE-C) EMME-CARE του Ινστιτούτου Κύπρου, Δρ. Πάνος Χατζηνικολάου (Panos Hadjinicolaou). 🔹 Όσον αφορά την Κύπρο, σημείωσε την τάση για μείωση της βροχόπτωσης τις επόμενες δεκαετίες, στη βάση μελετών, δεν απέκλεισε όμως μια μικρή αύξηση ακραίας βροχόπτωσης. #thecyprusinstitute #CyI #ClimateCrisis https://lnkd.in/ecmzneU7
