B.2.3 Consortium as a whole Description of the consortium The <strong>MEGAPOLI</strong> consortium consists of funded participants, non-funded international participants and end users/stakeholders. Overview of the Consortium and Commitment The <strong>MEGAPOLI</strong> consortium consists of 23 full partners from 11 European countries, 12 international research non-funded partners from USA, Canada, Mexico, India, Chile and Thailand, and 9 end users/stakeholders. Figures 8 and 9 show the geographical location of all the consortium partners and collaborators. All organizations are highly regarded internationally in their respective field. Collectively and uniquely, <strong>MEGAPOLI</strong> represents a true integration of capacity from hitherto disparate fields, namely, the climate change and air quality communities, from the megacity- to regional and global scales, including both measurement and modelling groups. The number of partners reflects the expertise that is required to undertake the work programme and benefits from partners having complementary roles. A balanced consortium was chosen to assemble all knowledge, research facilities, models and experiences together to do the research, needed to meet the objectives of <strong>MEGAPOLI</strong>. The key research groups are distributed across many parts of Europe, bringing together the necessary know-how in the necessary fields including atmospheric dynamics, atmospheric chemistry, urban, regional and global scale modelling, megacity features, emissions and ground-based, laboratory, aircraft and satellite measurement groups. The scientific nature of urban aerosol induced climate forcing and urban-regional air quality requires this broad based expertise and skill level. Over the duration of the project <strong>MEGAPOLI</strong> will mobilise in excess of 150 international scientists. Although there is an emphasis on research, strong interaction will exist with users, megacities administrations and external experts through the Project Advisory Board, user workshops and the Global Stakeholder forum. All participants are fully committed to the project and its aims and the work programme is an essential part of their organization's long-terms strategies demonstrating a high level commitment from all participants. The complementary roles for each partner are summarised in Table 2.3. 93
