A permanent Raman lidar station in the Amazon: description, characterization, and first results

aerosol optical depth (AOD) of the atmosphere, acoustic sounding of the boundary layer, laser sensing of the aerosol content in the troposphere and stratosphere, mea- surement of

We correlate the monthly mean aerosol optical depth (AOD) at 670 nm to the monthly mean surface extinction and the fraction of observations where the visibility is below 1– 10

Measurements of aerosol chemical composition and aerosol optical depth in the Nepal Himalaya have clearly shown the build up of aerosols in the pre-monsoon season during the winter

(a) MODIS mean aerosol optical depth at 550 nm over Amazonia during the dry season (b) and mean direct aerosol radiative forcing of aerosols (DARF24h) during the peak of the

A multiple linear regression is performed to identify the dependence of α in cloudy scenes on cloud liquid water path (LWP) and aerosol optical depth (AOD), using the

Once a high cloud is detected by ODS, its altitude and optical depth can be estimated by searching the optimal values of these parameters that provides the best fit between
