Large aerosol optical depths observed at an urban location in southern India associated with rain-deficit summer monsoon season

Aerosol spectral optical depth (AOD) measurements were made covering three years (2001, 2002 and 2003) at an urban continental location, Bangalore (13°N, 77.6°E) in India. These ground-based observations have shown that AODs reach a maximum during April (~0.5 at 500nm) and minimu...
