The effect of meteorology and aerosol size distribution on light scattering properties at a rural background site in Central Europe
Original language description
Atmospheric aerosols significantly influence the radiative forcing of the Earth1. They directly impact the Earth’s climate system by scattering or absorption of incoming solar and outgoing infrared radiations and indirectly by altering the clouds properties and their lifetime2. The reasons behind the large uncertainty of aerosols in the climate modeling are not yet fully understood. Although there are studies addressing aerosol impact on local climate3–5, there has been a scarcity of long-term series measured at rural background sites. The aim of this study is to characterize the light scattering properties of aerosols at the rural background site National Atmospheric Observatory Košetice (NAOK 49°34'20.787 N, 15°4'48.155 E') in Central Europe, namely the total light scattering (σsp) and backscattering (σbsp) coefficients, the Ångstrӧmexponent(SAE),backscattering ratio (b), and asymmetry factor (g) with the special focus on the influence of meteorology and aerosol size distribution on these properties.
