Periodic Reporting for period 1 - GRASP-ACE (Development of GRASP radiative transfer code for the retrieval of aerosol microphysics vertical-profiles from space measurements and its impact in ACE mission)

The focus of this project is on advancing in methodologies for atmospheric aerosols characterization. Actually, the Executive Summary of the 2013 IPCC's states that reducing the uncertainty in direct aerosol radiative forcing is a necessary step in reconciling estimates of...
