compounds mainly in remote regions and also over forests and urban areas.<br />
Patrick Chazette (Senior Sci.; Ph.: +33-1-69089456; e-mail: Patrick.Chazette@cea.fr) - is a Res. Scientist at<br />
the LSCE laboratory since 1993. He has acquired his PhD in the Service d'Aéronomie with Gérard Mégie in<br />
1990, in the field of space borne lidar dedicated to atmospheric research. He co-signs more than 40<br />
publications in peer reviewed international journals and more than 100 presentations in International<br />
Symposia. He is in charge of multi-angular backscatter lidar development for the Commissariat à l’Energie<br />
Atomique (CEA). He is expert on the remote sensing science for CEA. He previously worked within space<br />
borne scientific studies related to ATLID (1988-1991), ALISSA (1990), BEST (1991-1992) and IASI (1991-<br />
1997) projects. He acted as PI in the international projects MEDUSE (EU project from 1996 to 1998) and<br />
INDOEX (1999). He was coordinator in the frame of various programs dedicated to air pollution as<br />
ESQUIF, POVA and LISAIR. He is also a member of this scientific French comity and of the “Terre Ocean<br />
Surface Continental Atmosphére” (TOSCA) program for spaceborne-Earth observing systems.<br />

Expertise and experience of the organization<br />
LaMP (Laboratoire de Météorologie Physique) is a joint research unit of CNRS and Université Blaise Pascal.<br />
LaMP has a long-standing experience in the experimental and modelling studies of clouds and their<br />
interactions with solar radiation and atmospheric gaseous and particulate compounds. The main research<br />
activities deal with the role of aerosols and clouds in the oxidation capacity of the troposphere and the impact<br />
of iced and mixed-phase clouds on the Earth’s radiative budget. LaMP has developed new tools for<br />
characterising radiative and chemical properties of aerosols and cloud elements. It implements the cloud<br />
observation site of Puy-de-Dôme and manages activities for the French network of free-tropospheric research<br />
stations. In addition, LaMP has a long-standing experience with airborne characterization of cloud and<br />
aerosol optical, physical and chemical properties. LaMP has co-ordinated a number of EU projects within<br />
FP4 and FP5 and is present in the steering committees of several national and international programmes.<br />
LaMP is presently coordinating the EUSAAR FP6 Infrastructure program for monitoring of aerosol<br />
properties over Europe.<br />
Role and contribution<br />
Airborne aerosol measurements in WP3 (microphysics and chemistry).<br />

- he has published more than 50 papers in the field of aerosols and clouds and their<br />
interaction. He participated in 6 EU project and has procured more than 6 M€ of research income. He is<br />
leading the aerosol group at CNRS-LaMP and he is responsible for the French national aerosol program. He<br />
is a member of the SSC of the national program for atmospheric research and of the national agency<br />
committee for environment and health. He is the scientific coordinator of the EUSAAR I3 project and the<br />
coordinator of the action Access to infrastructures within NoE ACCENT.<br />
Karine Sellegri (CNRS Res. Scientist) - has integrated the Laboratoire de Meteorologie Physique (LaMP),<br />
France in October 2004 to study aerosol formation and its physico-chemical properties in natural<br />
environments. In the past, she has worked on new particle formation bursts in the Boreal forest (Hyytiälä) in<br />
the frame of the QUEST EU project and in the coastal marine environment (Mace Head) in the frame of the<br />
