Satellite Studies of the Stratospheric Aerosol
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The potential climatological and environmental importance of the stratospheric aerosol layer has prompted great interest in measuring the properties of this aerosol. In this paper we report on two recently deployed NASA ...
Satellite and Correlative Measurements of the Stratospheric Aerosol. III: Comparison of Measurements by SAM II, SAGE, Dustsondes, Filters, Impactors and Lidar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A large satellite validation experiment was conducted at Poker Flat, Alaska, 16?19 July 1979. Instruments included the SAM II and SAGE satellite sensors, dustsondes impactors, a fitter collector and an airborne lidar. We ...
Satellite and Correlative Measurements of the Stratospheric Aerosol. II: Comparison of Measurements Made by SAM II, Dustsondes and an Airborne Lidar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We show results from the first set of measurements conducted to validate extinction data from the satellite sensor SAM II. Dustsonde-measured number density profiles and lidar-measured backscattering profiles for two days ...
