There is a natural partitioning of scientific interest amongst three branches of aerosol research: modeling, in situ measurements, and remote sensing. The community sees enhanced measurement capabilities when these groups interact, and this strengthens the overall scientific impact on climate and air quality research. The Models, In situ, and Remote sensing of Aerosols (MIRA) international working group was formed to facilitate collaborations and improve discussions amongst these fields of study and across regional boundaries. MIRA emphasizes effort where these different aerosol subject areas overlap, and ideal MIRA topics seek collaboration from others. Indeed, many of us are already working across multiple aerosol disciplines, and our work benefits from synergetic access to different areas of expertise. We seek presentations that showcase multidisciplinary work and scientists who are interested in the MIRA concept. More information about MIRA can be found at https://science.larc.nasa.gov/mira-wg/.
