ARISE - A European research infrastructure combining three measurement techniques
in Bulletin > Vol. 62(1) (2013) . - p.27-32
Technology first used to listen for secret H-bomb tests could help forecasters tell us what the weather is going to be like up to a month in advance. That is one of the aims of an exciting new international research project, Atmosphere dynamics Research InfraStructure in Europe (ARISE), which kicked-off in January 2012. Following studies that showed that the upper layers of the Earth’s atmosphere could provide crucial information for more accurate longer-term weather forecasts, on timescales up to four weeks ahead, twelve partners from eight European member states and one associated country have joined forces to combine measurements of the stratosphere and mesosphere taken by three different kinds of instruments.
