| description | The remote sensing ground-based platform for atmospheric research hosted by the ERATOSTHENES Centre of Excellence will be the key research infrastructure of the Cyprus Atmospheric Remote Sensing Observatory (CARO) in Limassol, Cyprus. Between the 27th of October to the 1st of November 2020, the lidar system observed a pronounced and well-aged stratospheric aerosol layer with a backscatter maximum around 10 km asl and clear wildfire smoke signatures. The observed smoke plume was caused by extreme wildfires on the west coast of the U.S. Long-range aerosol transport events observed over Limassol are used for the study of the influence of organic aerosol particles (serving as ice-nucleating particles, INPs) in a cirrus formation in the upper troposphere. |
