We work to profiles of the atmospheric layer closest to the Earth’s surface where we all live. With our work we impact weather, air quality, and climate. Recent technological development for ground-based remote sensing instruments provides high-quality profiles of atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) parameters such as temperature, humidity, wind, aerosol, and cloud properties.

What is still missing to exploit these data to the fullest?

Efficient science and technology networking coordination & data and procedure harmonization.

PROBE is an initiative funded by the European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST). PROBE bridges user needs and the science and technology expertise residing in industry and academia and strengthens and harmonizes methods to get higher quality ABL observations.
