This European project aims to improve metrological traceability for the measurement of the main essential climate variables (ECVs) defined by the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS). This will address the need for improved accuracy in environmental parameter measurements and assist climatologists in implementing reliable climate change models.

Objectives

Improve metrological traceability for the measurement of key climate variables defined by the Global Climate Observing System
