Summary: | A new four-dimensional, multiyear, and near-global climate data record of the fine-mode (sub-micrometer in terms of diameter) and coarse-mode (super-micrometer in terms of diameter) components of atmospheric pure-dust, is presented. The separation of the two modes of dust in detected atmospheric dust layers is based on a combination of (1) the total pure-dust product provided by the well-established European Space Agency (ESA) - “LIdar climatology of Vertical Aerosol Structure” (LIVAS) database and (2) the coarse-mode component of pure-dust provided by the first-step of the two-step POlarization LIdar PHOtometer Networking (POLIPHON) technique, developed in the framework of European Aerosol Research Lidar Network (EARLINET). The fine-mode component of pure-dust is extracted as the residual between the total pure-dust and the coarse-mode component of pure-dust. Intermediate steps involve the implementation of regionally-dependent lidar-derived lidar-ratio values and AErosol RObotic NETwork (AERONET) based ... |
