CLEAR-SKY RADIATIVE AND TEMPERATURE EFFECTS OF DIFFERENT AEROSOL CLIMATOLOGIES IN THE COSMO MODEL
We estimated the effects of the different aerosol climatologies in the COSMO mesoscale atmospheric model using long-term aerosol measurements and the accurate global solar irradiance observations at ground at the Moscow State University Meteorological ...

Are EARLINET and AERONET climatologies consistent? The case of Thessaloniki, Greece [PDF]
Abstract. In this study we investigate the climatological behavior of the aerosol optical properties over Thessaloniki during the years 2003–2017. For this purpose, measurements of two independent instruments, a lidar and a sunphotometer, were used. These two instruments represent two individual networks, the European Lidar Aerosol Network (EARLINET ...

AEROSOL CLASSIFICATION FOR COMODORO RIVADAVIA AERONET STATIONDURING 2015
The city of Comodoro Rivadavia, in the province of Chubut, is located on the shores of the Argentinean Sea, in the central zone of the San Jorge Basin. Its climate is arid with little rainfall. In this work, the aerosol optical data of the aerosols of the AERONET/NASA network station that is installed in the monitoring station (45,792o S; 67,463o W) of

AERONET data–based determination of aerosol types
AbstractAerosols are among the most interesting topics investigated by researchers because of their complicated characteristics and poor quantification. Moreover, significant uncertainties are associated with changes in the Earth's radiation budget. Previous studies have shown numerous difficulties and challenges in quantifying aerosol influences.

Observationally-constrained estimates of global fine-mode AOD [PDF]
Small aerosols are mostly anthropogenic, and the fine-mode aerosol optical depth (fAOD) can be used to infer anthropogenic aerosol amounts. We estimate AOD and fAOD globally on a monthly time scale from 2001 to 2010 by integrating monthly satellite-based

Inferring absorbing organic carbon content from AERONET data [PDF]
Abstract. Black carbon, light-absorbing organic carbon (often called "brown carbon") and mineral dust are the major light-absorbing aerosols. Currently the sources and formation of brown carbon aerosol in particular are not well understood. In this study we estimated the amount of light–absorbing organic carbon and black carbon from AERONET ...
