To monitor and understand the Arctic atmosphere, there are a number of key questions that need to be answered. In particular:
-
How do clouds, aerosols and atmospheric chemistry interact to force
the Pan-Arctic surface energy balances and albedo-temperature feedbacks?
- What is the relative role of tropospheric dynamics and
stratospheric linkages in controlling the Arctic surface variability?
- What portion of the recent changes in the Arctic weather and
climate can be attributed to increases in anthropogenic sources?
-
How does the Arctic atmosphere interact with the rest of the Arctic (marine, cryospheric and terrestrial) system?
