TLDR
In this paper, the atmospheric transmission of Sun Radiation and on Dust in the Air are discussed. But they do not consider the effect of dust in the air on the transmission of sun radiation.

Information content and sensitivity of the 3 β + 2 α lidar measurement system for aerosol microphysical retrievals

TL;DR: The results suggest that the 3β + 2α measurement system is underdetermined with respect to the full suite of microphysical parameters considered in this study and that additional information is required, in the form of additional coincident measurements (e.g., sun-photometer or polarimeter) or a priori retrieval constraints.

Assessing large-scale weekly cycles in meteorological variables: a review

TL;DR: A review of the main results about the existence or non-existence of significant weekly weather cycles across different regions of the world, mainly over the US, Europe and Asia, can be found in this article.

A physically based method of estimating solar radiation from suncards

TL;DR: In this paper, the concepts of the so-called sunhours model of estimating incoming radiation, using only temperature, relative humidity and sunshine data, are explained before the inputs into the model are discussed.

A New Satellite-Based Global Climatology of Dust Aerosol Optical Depth

TL;DR: In this paper, two nearly global observation data sets were used to identify the largest contributor to global aerosol burden, by mass, from the ocean surface, particularly over the ocean, where long-term observational records of dust are limited.

Transport of Po Valley aerosol pollution to the northwestern Alps – Part 1: Phenomenology

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate and quantify the impact of air masses transported from the Po Valley, a European atmospheric pollution hotspot, to the northwestern Alps, showing that the resulting aerosol is hygroscopic, smaller in size, and less light-absorbing compared to the aerosol type locally emitted in the northwestern Italian Alps.
