A sensitivity study on the retrieval of aerosol vertical profiles using the oxygen A-band

Atmospheric absorption in the O<sub>2</sub> A-band (12 950–13 200 cm<sup>−1</sup>) offers a unique opportunity to retrieve aerosol extinction profiles from space-borne measurements due to the large dynamic range of optical thickness in that spectral region. Absorptions in str...
