Creating a scientific poster
As part of the Science of Climate Change course, we were tasked with creating a scientific poster on a topic related to climate change. We chose to create an engaging poster on mineral dust aerosols, a subject still shrouded in mystery. This project presented the challenge of clearly explaining aerosols while also addressing the uncertainties that still exist in this field of study.
Our poster delved into the complex interactions between aerosols and clouds, their effects on radiative forcing, and their impact on the albedo of the cryosphere. We aimed to present a comprehensive overview that highlighted both what is known and the questions that remain, making the science accessible and engaging for viewers.
