Aerosol Measurment Video for HARMONIA Project
Introducing Atmospheric Aerosols and the Basics of their Measurement
This is the explanatory video, we have created for the HARMONIA COST Action. This video in 6 minutes explains in the plain word, the basics about Atmospheric Aerosols and the principles of most common measuring approaches. We hope that our work adds a small puzzle piece in popular understanding of current Atmospheric science.

Last week, WTOC proudly participated in the 3rd OCEANIDS Plenary Meeting held in São Miguel, Azores. The gathering brought together consortium partners to exchange insights, review progress, and shape the next steps for our pilot activities and Earth Observation tools. LinkedIn Dr. Panos Raptis represented WTOC, presenting our latest advancements in developing a comprehensive database of historical climate impacts across OCEANIDS pilot regions. This database aims to catalog events such as floods, sea-level rise, and coastal erosion, along with their socio-economic consequences, providing valuable insights for stakeholders. A highlight of our presentation was the introduction of the OCEANWISE chatbot. This innovative tool is designed to facilitate communication and understanding among end-users by providing access to complex climate data through natural language dialogue. By translating intricate datasets into user-friendly information, OCEANWISE empowers local authorities and stakeholders to make informed decisions in the face of climate challenges.

WTOC remains committed to contributing to the resilience of coastal regions through data-driven solutions and collaborative efforts
