Aerosol optical properties in the ABL over arctic sea ice from airborne aerosol lidar measurements
Between 2009 and 2013 aerosols, sea ice properties and meteorological variables were measured during several airborne campaigns covering a wide range of the western arctic ocean. The campaigns were carried out with the aircraft Polar 5 of the German Alfred-Wegener-Institute (AWI) during spring and s...
