SURF, the Dutch organisation supporting research and education with high-performance computing and data storage, plays a vital role in NASA‘s PACE mission by processing data from the Dutch-built SPEXone instrument.
SPEXone studies aerosols and clouds to understand their impact on global warming. The data, processed on SURF’s Spider platform, helps scientists explore how aerosols cool the atmosphere by reflecting sunlight. Aerosols’ role in climate change is uncertain, and cleaner air could accelerate global warming. SPEXone’s findings will provide valuable insights into this dynamic, offering a clearer picture of Earth’s future climate.
