Description

The ACTRIS Sweden national research infrastructure provides support to researchers that require long-term quality-assured data on short-lived climate forcers and pollutants, including aerosols, clouds and reactive trace gases, and access to field stations.
ACTRIS Sweden is the Swedish node of the pan-European research infrastructure ACTRIS ERIC (Aerosol, Clouds, Trace gases Research Infrastructure; www.actris.eu), an ESFRI Landmark Research Infrastructure in the environment domain.
ACTRIS Sweden has made a strategic choice to strictly co-locate all its ground-based observational stations with ICOS Sweden, that is providing data on long-lived greenhouse gases and ecosystems. Both national research infrastructures are coordinated by Lund University with support from the Swedish Research Council.
ACTRIS Sweden is already now operating co-located stations at Hyltemossa, Norunda and Zeppelin on Svalbard, and will start operations at Svartberget and Östergarnsholm.
Focusing our joint activities on a selected number of stations will create environmental super-sites which will facilitate highly interdisciplinary observations enabling ground-breaking Earth system science and atmospheric research to be performed.
At the end of the implementation phase (2022-2026), ACTRIS Sweden will provide access to five ACTRIS-ICOS stations along a north-south gradient and two mobile exploratory platforms. All ACTRIS data are freely available in Open Access for any purpose.
