Interactive comment on “Scattering and absorption properties of near-surface aerosol over Gangetic–Himalayan region: the role of boundary
نویسنده
چکیده
The manuscript deals with a topic appropriate for ACP presenting the analyses of aerosol optical properties gathered during an experimental campaign in the GangeticHimalayan region. Although the study period roughly covers a complete annual seasonal cycle, the variety of variables potentially available for the study makes it really worthy. Bellow there are general and particular comments to help the authors in improving their manuscript. According to these comments, I consider that the manuscript requires substantial revision before to be accepted for publication in ACP.

The main issue with this manuscript is that some of the results were already presented in a recent paper published by Dumka and Kaskaoutis (2014). In the Abstract the authors write that “The present study examines the temporal (monthly, seasonal) evolution of scattering and absorption coefficients, their wavelength dependence. . .”. This was already presented in Dumka and Kaskaoutis (2014) toge...

10 Light scattering and absorption properties of atmospheric aerosols are of vital importance in 11 evaluating their types, sources and radiative forcing. This is of particular interest over the 12 Gangetic-Himalayan (GH) region due to uplift of aerosol from the plains to the Himalayan range 13 causing serious effects on atmospheric heating, glaciology and monsoon circulation.
