Ground based in situ observations of aerosol_optical_depth at Mauna Loa (US1200R) using sun_tracking_filter_radiometer

Abstract:
Ground based in situ observations of aerosol_optical_depth at Mauna Loa (US1200R) using sun_tracking_filter_radiometer. These measurements are gathered as a part of the following projects GAW-WDCA and they are stored in the EBAS database (http://ebas.nilu.no/). Parameters measured are: aerosol_optical_depth in aerosol (atmosphere_optical_thickness_due_to_ambient_aerosol_particles)
