Stratospheric Processes And their Role in Climate

Stratospheric Processes And their Role in Climate

Stratospheric Processes And their Role in Climate (SPARC) is a core project of the World Climate Research Programme.

Because of important role, which stratospheric processes play for the earth's climate system the World Climate Research Programme established this research project. The main goal of the project is to help the stratospheric research community focus on the issues of particular interest to climate.
