TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of mineral dust and tropical biomass burning layers in the Cape Verde region in January/February 2008 are investigated and compared with the conditions of fresh dust observed in May/June 2006 close the Sahara.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bigorre,Patrick Chazette,Susanne Crewell,Julien Delanoë,Kerry Emanuel,David Farrell,Cyrille Flamant,Silke Gross,Lutz Hirsch,Johannes Karstensen,Bernhard Mayer,Louise Nuijens,James H. Ruppert,Irina Sandu,A. Pier Siebesma,A. Pier Siebesma,Sabrina Speich,Frédéric Szczap,Julien Totems,Raphaela Vogel,Manfred Wendisch,Martin Wirth +24 more
TL;DR: In this article, a field campaign aimed at quantifying the physical properties of trade-cumuli (e.g., cloud fraction and water content) as a function of the large-scale environment is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical and microphysical properties of smoke over Cape Verde inferred from multiwavelength lidar measurements
Matthias Tesche,Matthias Tesche,Detlef Müller,Detlef Müller,Silke Gross,Silke Gross,Albert Ansmann,Dietrich Althausen,Volker Freudenthaler,Bernadett Weinzierl,Andreas Veira,Andreas Petzold +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used an inversion algorithm to retrieve microphysical properties of pure biomass-burning aerosol from southern West Africa and used these findings as input for an algorithm for extracting microphysical features of pure smoke.
