PACE validation of UV Aerosol Absorption Properties

Description

Three Modified Yankee Multi-Filtered Rotating Shadow Band Spectrometers (M-MFRSR) will be deployed at three locations to measure UV aerosol absorption properties at 340nm and 380 nm. Aerosol parameters to be derived are single scattering albedo (SSA) and Aerosol Absorption Optical Depth (AAOD). Instruments will be deployed at operational Aerosol RObotic NETwork (AERONET) sites. AERONET derived information on aerosol optical depth (AOD), surface albedo, and particle size distribution (PSD) will be used as input to the inversion of M-MFRSR total (direct plus diffuse), diffuse, and direct (total â€" diffuse) multi-spectral planar irradiance measurements.
