Description:

Further long-term investments in high-quality, research-driven, fit-for-purpose observations of atmospheric composition are needed globally to meet urgent societal needs related to weather, climate, air quality, and other environmental issues. Challenges include maintaining current observing systems in the face of eroding budgets for long-term monitoring and filling the geographical gaps for key constituents needed for sound services and policies. The observing systems can be bolstered through science-for-services applications, by embracing interoperable observation systems and standardized metadata and ensuring that the data is findable, accessible, interoperable, and re-usable. There is an urgent need to move from oportunities-driven one-component observations to more systemetic, planned multi-functional infrustructure, where the observational data flow is coupled with Earth System models to serve both operational and research purposes. This approach fosters a community where user experience feeds back into the research components and where mature research results are translated into operational applications. This will lead to faster exploration and exploitation of atmospheric composition information and more impactful applications for science and society. The urgent need to (i) achieve global coverage, (ii) harmonize infrastructure operations, (iii) establish focused policies and (iv) strengthen coordination of atmospheric composition infrastructure is discussed.
