Space & Climate collaboration United States of America and the Netherlands

Scientists from the United States and the Netherlands have identified opportunities to explore Scientists from the United States and the Netherlands have identified opportunities to explore avenues to further enhance the US-NL partnership, in the fields of clouds and aerosols, avenues to further enhance the US-NL partnership, in the fields of clouds and aerosols, greenhouse gases and reactive gases. In total 10 cross cutting topics between these fields have greenhouse gases and reactive gases. In total 10 cross cutting topics between these fields have been identified that will benefit from collaborative research. The subject matter experts have been identified that will benefit from collaborative research. The subject matter experts have made recommendations, that can be summarized in the following three categories: Joint development of satellite missions and sub-orbital campaigns, including the follow on for OMI/TROPOMI and SPEXone, and the study of reactive nitrogen. Joint research to reduce biases in satellite data, by improving methods and algorithms, calibration and validation studies, as well using the satellite data to enhance our knowledge on air quality, climate and biodiversity. Organizing scientific workshops and exchanging students and scientists, to exchange ideas and to build the US-NL partnership for the future.
