Science Objectives
- Provide
key measurements of aerosol and cloud properties
needed to improve climate predictions.
- Provide a global set of
data on cloud and aerosol properties, radiative fluxes,
and atmospheric state.
- Enable new assessments of
the radiative effects of aerosol and clouds that will
greatly improve
our ability
to predict
future climate change.
CALIPSO Outreach Mission
The
goal of the CLIPSO Outreach Program is to provide information
on global climate change to the public
in an effort to
develop scientifically literate citizens. The
aim of the outreach mission is to promote lifelong learners
capable of understanding the issues related to
atmospheric sciences
and making educated decisions regarding climate
change, pollution, and conservation.
