Lidar and in situ observations of continental and Saharan aerosol: closure analysis of particles optical and physical properties

Single wavelength polarization lidar observations collected at Mt. Cimone (44.2º N, 10.7º E, 1870 m a.s.l.) during the June 2000 MINATROC campaign are analyzed to derive tropospheric profiles of aerosol extinction, depolarization, surface area and volume. Lidar retrievals for the 2170-2245 m leve...
