EARLINET dust observations vs. BSC-DREAM8b modeled profiles: 12-year-long systematic comparison at Potenza, Italy
In this paper, we report the first systematic comparison of 12-year modeled dust extinction profiles vs. Raman lidar measurements. We use the BSC-DREAM8b model, one of the most widely used dust regional models in the Mediterranean, and Potenza EARLINET lidar profiles for Saharan dust cases, the largest one-site database of dust extinction profiles. A total of 310 dust cases were compared for th...
متن کاملWe want to thank the reviewers for taking the time to carefully read and comment the submitted paper
Anonymous Referee #1 Review of the paper “Systematic comparison of dust BSC-DREAM8b modeled profileswith Potenza EARLINET lidar database“ by L. Mona et al. This is an interesting and relevant paper describing the ability of the dust model BSC-DREAM8b 8b to represent the vertical distribution of Saharan dust in southern Italy. The evaluation is done with a large set of aerosol extinction and bac...
متن کاملSystematic lidar observations of Saharan dust layers over Athens, Greece in the frame of EARLINET project (2004–2006)
In this paper we present a statistical analysis on the geometrical and optical properties of Saharan dust layers observed over Athens, Greece, in a three-year period from 1 January 2004 up to 31 December 2006. The observations of the vertical aerosol profile were performed by the multi-wavelength (355-532-1064-387-607 nm) Raman lidar system of the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) ...
متن کاملMulti-wavelength Raman lidar observations of the Eyjafjallajökull volcanic cloud over Potenza, southern Italy
During the eruption of Eyjafjallajökull in April– May 2010 multi-wavelength Raman lidar measurements were performed at the CNR-IMAA Atmospheric Observatory (CIAO), whenever weather conditions permitted observations. A methodology both for volcanic layer identification and accurate aerosol typing has been developed. This methodology relies on the multi-wavelength Raman lidar measurements and the...
