TL;DR: Polarimetry is one of the most promising types of remote sensing for improved characterization of atmospheric aerosol, and several new-generation retrieval approaches have recently been proposed to address these challenges.

TL;DR: In this article, two winter heavy haze events in Beijing that occurred in 2011 and 2012 were selected and investigated by using the ground-based remote sensing measurements, and retrieval results from a total of five haze days showed that the aerosol loading and properties during the two winter haze events were comparable.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an experimental validation of a physical PM 2.5 remote sensing (PMRS) method which is not dependent on geographical location, based on ground-based remote sensing measurements at Jinhua City, a typical middle size city in East China.

TL;DR: In this paper, the columnar contents of BC, BrC, and DU were retrieved from spectral refractive indices and spectral single scattering albedo obtained from the sun-sky radiometer measurements.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used an advanced UNified and linearized vector radiative transfer model and incorporated a statistical optimization approach to retrieve aerosol microphysical properties from multispectral and multiangular photopolarimetric measurements taken by AERONET's new-generation Sun photometer.
