Analysis of aerosol properties using ground-based sun-sky radiometer in polar region[J]. Journal of Remote Sensing, 2013,17(3):553-565. DOI: 10.11834/jrs.20132090.
This paper introduced several important issues on applying ground-based automatic sun-sky radiometer CE318 for aerosol remote sensing in Polar Region. Due to extremely low temperature and special weather condition like big wind in Polar R egion
scientists usually meet some particular problems when performing aerosol remote sensing based on direct sun and diffused sky light measurements. Following sun-sky radiometer CE318 measurements at polar region
this paper discussed ( 1) the importance and application of temperature correction to aerosol optical depth measurements in polar region; ( 2) temperature effects when performing instrument calibration in polar region using Langley plot method; ( 3) using diffused sky light in the retrieval of aerosol microphysical and optical properties to choose observation geometry. These studies can provide reference for performing ground-based aerosol remote sensing using automatic sun-sky radiometer in Polar Regions
and support satellite remote sensing of polar aerosol as well as assessment of its climate effects.
