Overview
The emitted BBA aerosols can became condensation nuclei in the process of cloud formation influencing cloud radiative properties. Currently, cloud formation processes and the influence of aerosols are not fully understood, which leads 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: air quality and 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.
