“…A number of ACTRIS studies related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the series of lockdowns over Europe investigated their impact on air quality both at the European (Putaud et al, 2023), country (Petetin et al, 2020;Putaud et al, 2021) and city scales, e.g. Athens (Eleftheriadis et al, 2021), Paris (Petit et al, 2021), Elche (southeastern Spain) (Clemente et al, 2022), the Po Valley (Cristofanelli et al, 2021), and rural Košetice in the Czech Republic (Mbengue et al, 2023). Interestingly, most studies above documented not only an overall decrease in submicron particulate matter concentrations and primary traffic tracers, but also an increase in ozone.…”

The Aerosol, Clouds and Trace Gases Research Infrastructure (ACTRIS) officially became the 33rd European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) on April 25, 2023 with the support of 17 founding member and observer countries. As a pan-European legal organization, ACTRIS ERIC will coordinate the provision of data and data products on short-lived atmospheric constituents and clouds relevant to climate and air pollution over the next 15-20 years. ACTRIS was designed more than a decade ago, and its development was funded at national and European levels. It was included in the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures (ESFRI) Roadmap in 2016 and subsequently, in the national infrastructure roadmaps of European countries. It became a landmark of the ESFRI roadmap in 2021. The purpose of this paper is to describe the mission of ACTRIS, its added value to the community of atmospheric scientists, providing services to academia as well as the public and private sectors, and to summarize its main achievements. The present publication serves as a reference document for ACTRIS, its users and the scientific community as a whole. It provides the reader with relevant information and an overview on ACTRIS governance and services, as well as a summary of the main scientific achievements of the last 20 years. The paper concludes with an outlook on the upcoming challenges for ACTRIS and the strategy for its future evolution.
