Equip Ships and Planes as Sensors or Modulators of Climate

Retrofit existing vessels and aircraft with advanced sensors to systematically measure aerosol–cloud interactions in situ, improving our understanding and models.

R&D Gaps (2)

We have limited capacity to predict key disruptive events, such as solar flares that threaten power grids and communications, alongside an incomplete understanding of natural processes (atmospheric, ocean, etc.) that underpin climate models. We need better monitoring tools for characterizing phenome...
There is a critical need for more precise, rapid, and localized climate intervention strategies. Current approaches lack the fine-grained models and rapid response mechanisms required to adapt to diverse climate impacts, such as heatwaves, which demand swift and effective action. The ability to cont...
