On the spectral depolarisation and lidar ratio of mineral dust
provided in the AERONET version 3 inversion product
Keyword(s):
Abstract. Knowledge of the particle lidar ratio (Sλ) and the particle linear depolarisation ratio (δλ) for different aerosol types allows for aerosol typing and aerosol-type separation in lidar measurements. Reference values generally originate from dedicated lidar observations but might also be obtained from the inversion of AERONET sun/sky radiometer measurements. This study investigates the consistency of spectral Sλ and δλ provided in the recently released AERONET version 3 inversion product for observations of undiluted mineral dust in the vicinity of major deserts: Gobi, Sahara, Arabian, Great Basin and Great Victoria deserts. Pure dust conditions are identified by an Ångstöm exponent
