EU-Projekt DACCIWA (Dynamics-aerosol-chemistry-cloud interactions in West Africa)

The population of West Africa is growing rapidly. It has to cope with a complex meteorology, unreliable climate prognoses, and increasing air pollution. Within the following years, extensive measurements will be accomplished in this region, new weather and climate models will be developed, and development policy is planned to be supported under the DACCIWA EU project (Dynamics-Aerosol-Chemistry-Cloud Interactions in West Africa).
DACCIWA covers the complete chain from natural and anthropogenic emissions to impacts on the climate, ecosystems, and health. The project coordinated by KIT has a budget of nearly nine million euros.
