Aerosols are important atmospheric constituents with significant impacts on both regional air
quality and the global climate and environment. Aerosol effects on radiation, clouds and …

Mineral dust particles suspended in the atmosphere span more than three orders of
magnitude in diameter, from< 0.1 µm to more than 100 µm. This wide size range makes dust …

The mixing layer is an important meteorological factor that affects air pollution. In this study,
the atmospheric mixing layer height (MLH) was observed in Beijing from July 2009 to …

The atmospheric science community demands autonomous and quality-assured vertically
resolved measurements of aerosol and cloud properties. For this purpose, a portable lidar …

We present spectrally resolved optical and microphysical properties of western Canadian
wildfire smoke observed in a tropospheric layer from 5–6.5 km height and in a stratospheric …

A global vertically resolved aerosol data set covering more than 10 years of observations at
more than 20 measurement sites distributed from 63∘ N to 52∘ S and 72∘ W to 124∘ E has …

Aerosol forcing uncertainty represents the largest climate forcing uncertainty overall. Its
magnitude has remained virtually undiminished over the past 20 years despite considerable …

The atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) defines the volume of air adjacent to the Earth's
surface for the dilution of heat, moisture, and trace substances. Quantitative knowledge on …

Linear particle depolarization ratio is presented for three case studies from the NASA
Langley airborne High Spectral Resolution Lidar-2 (HSRL-2). Particle depolarization ratio …

Six months of stratospheric aerosol observations with the European Aerosol Research Lidar
Network (EARLINET) from August 2017 to January 2018 are presented. The decay phase of …
