      Measurements with two Raman-depolarization lidars of the Meteorological Institute of the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, München, Germany, performed during SAMUM-2, were used to characterize the planetary boundary layer ...

    • Dust mobilization and aerosol transport from West Africa to Cape Verde-a meteorological overview of SAMUM-2 

      Knippertz, Peter; Tesche, Matthias; Heinold, Bernd; Kandler, Konrad; Toledano, Carlos; Esselborn, Michael (2011-09-01)
      The second field campaign of the SAharan Mineral dUst experiMent (SAMUM-2) was performed between 15 January and 14 February 2008 at the airport of Praia, Cape Verde, and provided valuable information to study the westward ...

    • Dust mobilization and transport in the northern Sahara during SAMUM 2006 - a meteorological overview 

      Knippertz, Peter; Ansmann, Albert; Althausen, Dietrich; Mueller, D.; Tesche, Matthias; Bierwirth, Eike; Dinter, Tilman; Mueller, Thomas; Von Hoyningen-Huene, Wolfgang; Schepanski, Kerstin; Wendisch, Manfred; Heinold, Bernd; Kandler, Konrad; Petzold, Andreas; Schuetz, Lothar; Tegen, Ina (2009-02)
      The SAMUM field campaign in southern Morocco in May/June 2006 provides valuable data to study the emission, and the horizontal and vertical transports of mineral dust in the Northern Sahara. Radiosonde and lidar observations ...

    • Modelling lidar-relevant optical properties of complex mineral dust aerosols 

      Gasteiger, Josef; Wiegner, Matthias; Gross, Silke; Freudenthaler, Volker; Toledano, Carlos; Tesche, Matthias; Kandler, Konrad (2011-09-01)
      We model lidar-relevant optical properties of mineral dust aerosols and compare the modelling results with optical properties derived from lidar measurements during the SAMUM field campaigns. The Discrete Dipole Approximation ...

    • Regional modelling of Saharan dust and biomass-burning smoke. Part 1 : Model description and evaluation 

      Heinold, Bernd; Tegen, Ina; Schepanski, Kerstin; Tesche, Matthias; Esselborn, Michael; Freudenthaler, Volker; Gross, Silke; Kandler, Konrad; Knippertz, Peter; Mueller, D.; Schladitz, Alexander; Toledano, Carlos; Weinzierl, Bernadett; Ansmann, Albert; Althausen, Dietrich; Müller, Thomas; Petzold, Andreas; Wiedensohler, Alfred (2011-09)
      The spatio-temporal evolution of the Saharan dust and biomass-burning plume during the SAMUM-2 field campaign in January and February 2008 is simulated at 28 km horizontal resolution with the regional model-system COSMO-MUSCAT. ...

    • Regional Saharan dust modelling during the SAMUM 2006 campaign 

      Heinold, Bernd; Tegen, Ina; Esselborn, Michael; Kandler, Konrad; Knippertz, Peter; Mueller, D.; Schladitz, Alexander; Tesche, Matthias; Weinzierl, Bernadett; Ansmann, Albert; Althausen, Dietrich; Laurent, Benoit; Massling, Andreas; Mueller, Thomas; Petzold, Andreas; Schepanski, Kerstin; Wiedensohler, Alfred (2009-02)
      The regional dust model system LM-MUSCAT-DES was developed in the framework of the SAMUM project. Using the unique comprehensive data set of near-source dust properties during the 2006 SAMUM field campaign, the performance ...

    • Saharan Mineral Dust Experiments SAMUM-1 and SAMUM-2 : what have we learned?
