Atmospheric Remote Sensing

Tesscorn supports advanced research in Aerosol Remote Sensing, cloud physics, and climate science by providing state-of-the-art instrumentation for atmospheric and air quality studies. Aerosols influence climate by reflecting and absorbing sunlight, modifying cloud formation, affecting precipitation, and impacting human health. Because these microscopic particles can travel thousands of kilometers and alter regional and global atmospheric processes, accurate measurement and satellite validation are essential. Tesscorn contributes to aircraft-based field campaigns and offers advanced ground-based and mobile facilities to measure the physical and chemical properties of aerosols and clouds, enabling high-quality data for climate modeling, satellite validation, and environmental monitoring.
