The BUNIAACIC collaboration aims to develop a coherent strategy for UK studies of atmospheric composition and impacts in the Amazon.A network of Brazilian and UK atmospheric researchers will be established to scope potential collaborative opportunities by exploiting and extending the infrastructural framework of the FAPESP AEROCLIMA Thematic Grant. An early secondment of CAS staff to São Paulo followed by a broad kick-off workshop will be used to initiate the scoping study. Potential UK activities at various stages of development will be drawn into a broader strategy of International collaboration and opportunities for further consortium scale activities will be developed. A UK office for collaboration on Amazonian atmospheric research will be established at the University of Manchester. The long-term particulate monitoring programme within AEROCLIMA will be expanded to include online aerosol composition measurements at the pristine rainforest site. Secondment of São Paulo staff to CAS will ensure adequate training is provided in the operation of the instrumentation, data analysis and quality control. A pump-priming pilot scale intensive deployment of the CAS container laboratory with additional particulate measurement instrumentation will be used to i) validate the long-term measurements, ii) quantitatively interpret the impacts of aerosol composition on physical properties of climate relevance in the context of the long-term variability, iii) act as a focal measurement suite around which a broader consortium-scale activity can be developed. A strategy for the medium and longer term collaborative efforts will be developed based on the initial scoping study and consultation throughout the UK research community. This strategy will be consolidated into a White Paper outlining the Brazil-UK collaborative opportunities and recommended participation of UK groups in Amazonian atmospheric research.

BUNIAACIC的合作旨在为英国研究亚马逊地区的大气组成和影响制定一个连贯的战略。将建立一个由巴西和英国大气研究人员组成的网络，通过开发和扩展FAPESP AEROCLIMA专题补助金的基础设施框架来探索潜在的合作机会。早期借调中科院工作人员到S圣保罗，然后举行广泛的启动讲习班，将用于启动范围研究。处于不同发展阶段的潜在英国活动将被纳入更广泛的国际合作战略，并将为进一步的财团规模活动开发机会。英国将在曼彻斯特大学设立亚马逊大气研究合作办公室。AEROCLIMA内的长期颗粒监测方案将扩大到包括原始热带雨林地点的在线气溶胶成分测量。将S的工作人员借调到中科院将确保在仪器操作、数据分析和质量控制方面提供适当的培训。将利用中科院集装箱实验室的泵启动试点规模密集部署额外的颗粒测量仪器，以：1)验证长期测量，2)在长期可变性的背景下定量解释气溶胶成分对气候相关物理特性的影响，3)作为重点测量套件，可围绕其开展更广泛的联合体规模的活动。将在整个英国研究界的初步范围研究和咨询的基础上制定中长期合作努力的战略。这一战略将合并成一份白皮书，概述巴西-英国的合作机会，并建议英国团体参与亚马逊地区的大气研究。
