 ACTRIS was established as a ERIC (European Research Infrastructure consortium) in 2023, based on previous networks for aerosol, cloud and trace gas observations.
-The Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) is currently the implementation of ACTRIS in Germany [[https://www.fona.de/en/measures/research-infrastructures/actris-d.php|Information on ACTRIS by BMBF/FONA]]. Central facility funding is provided by ACTRIS-ERIC as well as the Federal Ministry for the Environment (BMUV).

-===== ACTRIS central facility CCRES-DE =====
-The German unit of the [[https://www.actris.eu/topical-centre/ccres|Centre for Cloud Remote Sensing (CCRES-DE)]] provides support and state-of-the-art expertise for ground-based microwave radiometer (MWR) operation, data quality control and quality assurance, retrieval development as well as the testing of new instruments.
-=== Main tasks within CCRES ===
-  * Development of MWR data processing (together with the ACTRIS data centre CLU)
-  * Establishing of MWR calibration procedures and quality assurance/quality control measures for the whole ACTRIS network
-  * Implementation of a common retrieval framework for harmonized atmospheric data from MWR throughout the ACTRIS network
-  * Operation of reference instruments
-More information about CCRES services and instrument monitoring can be found at the [[https://ccres.aeris-data.fr/|CCRES services website]]
