TROPOS - Leibniz Institute for Tropospheric Research

Aerosol climatology of the atmosphere

  • Research
  • Long-term trends and process analysis
  • Long-term studies of global relevance
  • Aerosol climatology of the atmosphere

Overview

This page presents long-term studies and corresponding statistical results on the aerosol properties of the atmosphere. The underlying data sets used for the analysis are generally based on lidar measurements of the Working Group Ground-based Remote Sensing.

  • Source determination of lofted aerosol layers with trajectory and particle transport calculations
  • Lidar measurements within PollyNet of the aersol distributions in climatological key-regions
  • Validation of Satellite-Lidar-Measurements
