Depolarization ratio profiling at several wavelengths in pure Saharan dust during SAMUM 2006
(2009-02)
Vertical profiles of the linear particle depolarization ratio of pure dust clouds were measured during the Saharan Mineral Dust Experiment (SAMUM) at Ouarzazate, Morocco (30.9 degrees N, -6.9 degrees E), close to source ...
Regional Saharan dust modelling during the SAMUM 2006 campaign
(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 ...
Vertical profiling of convective dust plumes in southern Morocco during SAMUM
(2009-02)
Lifting of dust particles by dust devils and convective plumes may significantly contribute to the global mineral dust budget. During the Saharan Mineral Dust Experiment (SAMUM) in May-June 2006 vertical profiling of dusty ...
EARLINET observations of the 14-22-May long-range dust transport event during SAMUM 2006 : validation of results from dust transport modelling
(2009-02)
We observed a long-range transport event of mineral dust from North Africa to South Europe during the Saharan Mineral Dust Experiment (SAMUM) 2006. Geometrical and optical properties of that dust plume were determined with ...
Spectral surface albedo over Morocco and its impact on radiative forcing of Saharan dust
(2009-02)
In May-June 2006, airborne and ground-based solar (0.3-2.2 mu m) and thermal infrared (4-42 mu m) radiation measurements have been performed in Morocco within the Saharan Mineral Dust Experiment (SAMUM). Upwelling and ...
Vertical profiling of Saharan dust with Raman lidars and airborne HSRL in southern Morocco during SAMUM
(2009-02)
Three ground-based Raman lidars and an airborne high-spectral-resolution lidar (HSRL) were operated during SAMUM 2006 in southern Morocco to measure height profiles of the volume extinction coefficient, the extinction-to ...
