Retrieval of Aerosol Properties from Surface Measurements in an Urban Environment

摘要

Aerosol optical and radiative properties have, for the first time, been retrieved from ground-based measurements in Karachi, Pakistan. Ground-based aerosol measurements were obtained using a GRIMM Model 1.109 optical particle counter (OPC). The optical and radiative properties of aerosols were retrieved from these measurements using the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) inversion algorithm.
