The CU 2-D-MAX-DOAS instrument – Part 2: Raman scattering probability measurements and retrieval of aerosol optical properties

The multiannual global mean of aerosol optical depth at 550 nm (AOD<sub>550</sub>) over land is ∼ 0.19, and that over oceans is ∼ 0.13. About 45 % of the Earth surface shows AOD<sub>550</sub> smaller than 0.1. There is a need for measurement techniques that are optimized to m...
