Interest in stratospheric aerosol and its role in climate have increased over the last decade
due to the observed increase in stratospheric aerosol since 2000 and the potential for …

The recent literature on satellite remote sensing of air quality is reviewed. 2009 is the 50th
anniversary of the first satellite atmospheric observations. For the first 40 of those years …

A review of remote sensing technology for lower tropospheric thermodynamic (TD) profiling
is presented with focus on high accuracy and high temporal‐vertical resolution. The …

We present an inversion algorithm for the retrieval of particle size distribution parameters, ie,
mean (effective) radius, number, surface area, and volume concentration, and complex …

More than 130 observation days of the horizontal and vertical extent of Saharan dust
intrusions over Europe during the period May 2000 to December 2002 were studied by …

We coordinated a ground‐based network that has been in use since 1997 to observe Asian
dust during springtime. Huge Asian dust events that occurred in the middle of April 1998 …

This paper presents the GARRLiC algorithm (Generalized Aerosol Retrieval from
Radiometer and Lidar Combined data) that simultaneously inverts coincident lidar and …

Long-range-transported Canadian smoke layers in the stratosphere over northern France
were detected by three lidar systems in August 2017. The peaked optical depth of the …

Aerosol-cloud interactions (ACIs) are vital for regulating Earth's climate by influencing
energy and water cycles. Yet, effects of ACI bear large uncertainties, evidenced by …

In the spring of 2003, we observed lofted Asian dust and Siberian forest‐fire smoke plumes
in the free troposphere over Tokyo, Japan with a dual‐wavelength Raman lidar. These data …
