Division on Atmospheric Sciences

President: Philip Stier (Emailas@egu.eu)
Deputy President: Athanasios Nenes (Email)
ECS Representative: Robert Maiwald (Emailecs-as@egu.eu)

The Atmospheric Sciences (AS) Division is one of the largest divisions of the European Geosciences Union. The research areas covered by the division extend from the large-scale dynamical/meteorological processes and systems in the atmosphere (like cyclones and global atmosphere circulation) to the small scale turbulent mixing, they cover the time frame from centuries (in connection with climate research) to seconds (in the context of fast chemistry). Atmospheric sciences include studies of the atmosphere composition, aerosol and cloud physics, gas-particles interactions and chemical reaction kinetics studied in the labs.
