Atmospheric optics and aerosol
Abstract
This collection of papers treats the following broad topics: the optical and microphysical characteristics of atmospheric aerosol; the optical sounding of the atmosphere; and the relationship between aerosol and climate. Particular papers are presented on the composition and optical properties of the submicron fraction of aerosol; the relationship between the aerosol attenuation of visible and IR radiation and atmospheric moisture; satellite measurements of the spatial structure and optical properties of clouds; and the relationship between aerosol absorption in the 0.25-25 micron range and climate.
