Three volcanic plumes were detected during the Tajogaite volcano eruptive activity (Canary Islands, Spain, September–December 2021) over Iberian Peninsula. The spatiotemporal evolution of these events is characterised by combining passive satellite remote sensing and ground-based lidar sun-photometer systems. inversion algorithm GRASP used with a suite instruments such as lidar/ceilometer from eight sites at different locations throughout Satellite observations showed that ash remained...
Water vapour (WV) is one of the most significant greenhouse gases and plays a critical role in majority thermodynamic processes that occur within atmosphere. Thus, it significantly influences radiative budget cloud formation mechanisms, being paramount importance weather forecasting. Therefore, accurate detailed characterisation its spatial temporal distribution undoubtedly great interest. However, measurement techniques often struggle with variability both space time, making challenging to...
During the last years there have been a great advance in development of satellite missions for Earth Observation. Most them rely on passive remote sensing measurements, particularly multiwavelength multi-angular polarimetry measurements (MAP). Upcoming such as Sentinel-5 will also deploy MAP and are even private initiatives to expand space measurements. Although proven be ideal expanding our knowledge aerosol optical microphysical properties (Dubovik et al., 2019), they provided very limited...
Abstract. This work introduces CAECENET, a new system capable of automatically retrieving columnar and vertically-resolved aerosol properties running the GRASP (Generalized Retrieval Atmosphere Surface Properties) algorithm using sun-sky photometer (aerosol optical depth, AOD; sky radiance measurements) ceilometer (range corrected signal; RCS) data as input. method, so called GRASPpac, is implemented in which assimilates photometers from CÆLIS database ICENET (Iberian Ceilometer Network)....

Remote sensing techniques are essential to monitor and characterise atmospheric aerosol. On the one hand, ceilometers have been proved be an effective tool for detection monitoring not only clouds, but also aerosol particle. In recent years, developments of automatic lidars with profiling capabilities as well advances in calibration related such devices offer capacity characterizing optical properties backscatter coefficient. other sun-photometers a commonly employed instrument integrated...
