The GRSV participate in the AR-4D campaign at the ENEA Climate Observatory in Lampedusa (Italy)
The ITINERIS TNA access project titled: "Atmospheric radiation in a 4-D perspective: broken cloud effects on air/sea interactions" granted to José Luis Gómez Amo support for a the AR-4D field campaign. It is being carried out during June-July 2025 at the ENEA Climate Observatory, which consists of an atmospheric, an oceanographic, and an ecosystem section, which are located in Lampedusa island, and maintained by the Laboratory for Models and Measurements for Air Quality and Climate Observations (SSPT-CLIMAR-AOC) of ENEA. The campaign is mostly focused to study the 4D impact of the atmospheric radiation on the marine environment and is based on the collaboration between SSPT-CLIMAR-AOC and the Solar Radiation Group of the University of Valencia(GRSV). Three members of the GRSV participate in the AR-4D campaign operating several all-sky imagers. The AR-4D campaign serves also to test the new MultiSpectral Imager for Cloud and Aerosol research(MuSICA)developed by the GRSV in the framework of the PELICAN project (A ground-based remote sensing strategy to exPlore aErosol cLoud InteraCtions and rAdiative forciNg) in measuring the spatial distribution of solar radiation and the aerosol and cloud properties. The personnel from ENEA take care all the instruments at the Lampedusa observatories, specially the vertical profiles of aerosol and clouds, atmospheric radiation at the land and ocean surface which are the most important for the AR-4D success.
