Co-operations
The scientific direction of IEK-7 is closely aligned to current issues of the WRCP project SPARC (Stratosphere-troposphere Processes And their Role in Climate) (https://www.sparc-climate.org/). IEK-7 contributes to numerous SPARC initiatives such as Polar Stratospheric Cloud initiative (PSCi), the Gravity Wave initiative, the Water Vapor assessment (WAVAS), the Stratospheric Sulfur and its Role in Climate (SSiRCi) initiative, the Stratospheric Reanalysis Inter-comparison project (S-RIP), and the Lifetimes of Stratospheric Ozone-Depleting Substances initiative.
