An Adjustment Approach for Aerosol Optical Depth Inferred from CALIPSO

Remote Sensing, 2021
The verification and correction of CALIPSO aerosol products is key to understanding the atmospheric environment and climate change. However, CALIPSO often cannot detect the full profile of aerosol for the low instrument sensitivity near the surface. Thus,

Using space lidar to infer bubble cloud depth on a global scale [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Visible and microwave satellite measurements can provide the global whitecap fraction. The bubble clouds are three-dimensional structures, and a space-based lidar can provide complementary observations of the bubble depth. Here, we use lidar measurements

Comparison and Analysis of CALIPSO Aerosol Optical Depth and AERONET Aerosol Optical Depth Products in Asia from 2006 to 2023

Remote Sensing
Aerosol optical depth (AOD) serves as a significant parameter in aerosol research. With the increasing utilization of satellite data in AOD research, it is crucial to evaluate the satellite AOD data.

Assessment of tropospheric CALIPSO Version 4.2 aerosol types over the ocean using independent CALIPSO–SODA lidar ratios [PDF]

Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2022
We assess the CALIPSO Version 4.2 (V4) aerosol typing and assigned lidar ratios over ocean using aerosol optical depth (AOD) retrievals from the Synergized Optical Depth of Aerosols (SODA) algorithm and retrieved columnar lidar ratio estimated by ...

Optical and Physical Characteristics of the Lowest Aerosol Layers over the Yellow River Basin

Atmosphere, 2019
Studying the presence of aerosols in different atmospheric layers helps researchers understand their impacts on climate change, air quality, and human health. Therefore, in the present study, the optical and physical properties of aerosol layers over the
