The characteristics of aerosol optical depth (AOD) over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) were analyzed using 8-year (from January 2007 to December 2014) Cloud-Aerosol LiDAR and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) level 2 aerosol layer product...

In this study, a combination of ground-based particulate matter measurements in synergy with space-borne CALIOP lidar recordings, meteorological observations, and reanalysis models have been used to study atmospheric air pollution over Amman, Jordan....

Atmospheric aerosols have important effects on the environment and human health. In this study, we analyzed the atmospheric aerosol layers’ optical and physical properties over Africa utilizing CALIPSO level 2 products from 2007 to 2019. Intera...

Atmospheric aerosols have important impacts on global radiative forcing, air pollution, and human health. This study investigated the optical and physical properties of aerosol layers over Australia from 2007 to 2019 using the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and...

This study presents a systematic analysis of the optical-physical properties of low clouds and their vertical interaction mechanisms with aerosols over three African sub-regions (A: North African Desert; B: Congo Basin; C: Southeastern Plateau and Co...

The vertically distributed aerosol optical properties are investigated over Pakistan utilizing the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) Level 2 products from 2007 to 2014. For a better understanding of the spati...

Studying the presence of aerosols in different atmospheric layers helps researchers understand their impacts on climate change, air quality, and human health. Therefore, in the present study, the optical and physical properties of aerosol layers over...

The optical characteristics of vertically distributed aerosols over Saudi Arabia were investigated using the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) data from 2007 to 2019. The study region was divided into three p...

The Lidar on the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) mission, makes robust measurements of dust and has generated a record that is significant both seasonally and interannually. We exploit this record to deter...

Clouds and aerosols, as important factors in the Earth’s climate system, have significant impacts on the atmospheric environment and global climate. This study investigated the optical and physical properties of clouds and aerosols over South A...

The boundary layer height (BLH) determines the interface between the lower and the free atmosphere, and it is a key variable in numerical simulations and aerosol and environmental pollution studies. This article proposes a novel method in conjunction...

Cloud Top Height (CTH), defined as the altitude of the highest cloud layer above mean sea level, is a crucial geophysical parameter for quantifying cloud radiative effects, analyzing severe weather systems, and improving climate models. To enhance th...
