Retrieval of aerosol microphysical and optical properties above liquid clouds from POLDER/PARASOL polarization measurements
Most of the current aerosol retrievals from passive sensors are restricted to cloud-free scenes, which strongly reduces our ability to monitor the aerosol properties at a global scale and to estimate their radiative forcing. The presence of aerosol above clouds (AAC) affects the polarized light refl...
