TL;DR: In this paper, a discrimination of different aerosol types over the Arabian Sea (AS) during the Integrated Campaign for Aerosols, Gases and Radiation Budget (ICARB-06) was made using values of aerosol optical depth (AOD) at 500 nm and A ngstrA¶m exponent (I±) in the spectral band 340-1020 nm.

TL;DR: Sun photometer-derived multi-spectral aerosol optical depth (AOD) measurements made at Pune (18°32'N, 73°51'E), India, during the period May 1998-December 2007 have been used to examine possible long-term trends and variability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lidar measurements of aerosols in the tropical atmosphere
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used an Argon ion/Helium-Neon lidar to measure atmospheric aerosols and trace gases using the laser radar (lidar) techniques, and found that the most probable occurrence of mixing depth lies between 450 and 550 m.
Journal ArticleDOI
Raindrop size distributions and their association with characteristics of clouds and precipitation during monsoon and post-monsoon periods over a tropical Indian station
TL;DR: In this paper, the raindrop size distributions (DSD) measured with the JW (Joss and Waldvogel) impact type of disdrometer have been utilized to study the characteristic features of precipitation during the monsoon and post-monsoon months over the tropical Indian station Pune (18.53°N, 73.85°E).
Journal ArticleDOI
A bistatic lidar for aerosol studies
TL;DR: A bistatic, continuous wave lidar system has been developed at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, Pune for the purpose of monitoring aerosol characteristics at the place as mentioned in this paper.
