TL;DR: In this article, a case study of air masses advected from the Saharan region to the Canary Islands and the Iberian Peninsula, located relatively close and far away from the dust sources, was considered for this purpose.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on ground-based lidar observations of the same event from every continent in the Northern Hemisphere, taking advantage of the synergy between global lidar networks such as EARLINET, MPLNET and NDACC with independent lidar groups and satellite CALIPSO.

TL;DR: In this article, the decay phase of an unprecedented, record-breaking stratospheric perturbation caused by wildfire smoke is reported and discussed in terms of geometrical, optical, and microphysical aerosol properties.

TL;DR: A group of eight Spanish lidars was formed in order to extend the European Aerosol Research Lidar Network-Advanced Sustainable Observation System (EARLINET-ASOS) project and intercomparisons at the hardware and software levels showed that all algorithms work well when all inputs are known.

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stream radiative transfer modelling, including particulate aerosol content and surface albedo, indicates that the present abundance of SO2 does not provide any surface protection of the UV radiation, however, larger abundances of sulfur dioxide (mixing ratio, q, comprised between 10−5 and 10−4) introduced in the present 6 mbar Martian atmosphere can partially protect the surface from the harmful solar UV radiation.
