Perspectives of the Explicit Retrieval of the Complex Refractive Index of Aerosols from Optical Data Taken with Lidar

We developed an explicit approach for the retrieval of the complex refractive index from optical data, i.e. backscatter and extinction coefficients measured with lidar. In this approach we assume that we know the particle size distributions as well as the optical data. On the basis of this approach...
