Footprint of the 2020 COVID-19 Lockdown on Column-Integrated Aerosol Parameters in Spain

The lockdown adopted in Spain to combat the global pandemic due to the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) led to a significant reduction in the emission of aerosols produced by road traffic and industry. This study aims to detect changes in column aerosols in Spain due to the COVID-19 lockdown. High-qua...
