Incorporation of aerosol into the COSPv2 satellite lidar simulator for climate model evaluation

<p>Atmospheric aerosol has substantial impacts on climate, air quality and biogeochemical cycles, and its concentrations are highly variable in space and time. A key variability to evaluate within models that simulate aerosol is the vertical distribution, which influences atmospheric heating p...
