The Atmosphere Research Group evaluates dynamic atmosphere in Mediterranean
Date:4/16/2010

although the annual results will be more or less the same, they will happen in a different manner". Also in this project are the specialities of the Group: atmospheric contamination and meteorology. They studied the sources of water vapour again. Moreover, they studied the importation and exportation of dust from the Sahara and the extreme meteorological events that occur and will occur in the Autonomous Community of the Basque Country, and they gathered data to investigate the local effects of climate change. As regards atmospheric contamination, they measured a number of elements that give rise to it.

Always pioneers

Prior to these two projects by the Atmosphere Research Group at the UPV/EHU, they had worked on many other things - they have always been pioneers. They registered their first patents when they calculated the distance travelled by factory smoke, using stereophotogrammetry. This technique involves taking photographs of two locations simultaneously, with common cameras: "You follow the part of the plume that is visible and you find out where it rises to".

Then came more ideas. For example, meteorological research using captive or free weather balloons, equipped with radio probes and sensors for ozone, pressure, humidity and temperature. The radar wind profiler at Punta Galea was also a first in Europe, installed by the Basque Meteorological Service - under the guidance of the Atmosphere Research Group. It is a radar/sodar equipment that obtains profiles of wind and temperature up to 3000 m high. Then there is the system for the measurement of volatile organic compounds, measuring the concentration of many of these contaminants in the atmosphere. The first unit was purchased by the Basque Government, on the request of Mr Alonso's group, "when there was not one in the whole of Spain". The same group developed systems of feeding, purifying and cleaning of gases and protocols for the quality control of data.
