Understanding the macrophysical and microphysical processes within a convective environment is highly important to strengthen the resilience and adaptation to severe weather. The ACCuReSy project targets a topic a topic under debate within the international scientific community but less tackled in Romania: the aerosol-cloud interactions. By using state-of-the-art remote sensing instruments from new exploratory platforms placed within relevant two locations chosen by their relevance for the environmental factors that meet the conditions for observing convective development either thermal and dynamical, the project aims to perform advanced research on the atmospheric environment before, during and shortly after the convective events and to investigate the aerosol-cloud interactions with special attention on the factors that contribute to the hail formation. Here we present briefly the work performed during the first phase of the project and the future steps in achieving our goals.Key words: aerosol-clouds interactions, cloud macro- and microphysics, convective clouds, severe weatherAcknowledgment: This work is funded by a grant of the Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitization, CCCDI - UEFISCDI, project number PN-III-P2-2.1-PED-2021-1938, ctr.
