ACCENT
(Atmospheric Composition Change- The European Network of Excellence)

Objective: The project aimed to promote a common European strategy for research on atmospheric composition change, to develop and maintain durable means of communication and collaboration within the European scientific community, to facilitate this research and to optimise two-way interactions with policy-makers and the general public.

LHTEE Contribution: LHTEE was involved in the Tasks Transport and Transformation (T&TP) and Training and Education (T&E), contributing to model benchmarking and quality assurance, scale interaction and multiscale modelling issues, as well the training and education of early career scientists. LHTEE organised relevant scientific and training workshops for both tasks.

Funded by: EC, under the Sixth Framework Programme/ Priority 1.1.6.3 Global Change and Ecosystems
