Characterization of Stratospheric Smoke Particles over the Antarctica by Remote Sensing Instruments

Australian smoke from the extraordinary biomass burning in December 2019 was observed over Marambio, Antarctica from the 7th to the 10th January, 2020. The smoke plume was transported thousands of kilometers over the Pacific Ocean, and reached the Antarctic Peninsula at a hight of 13 km. Ground-base...

Description
Summary:Australian smoke from the extraordinary biomass burning in December 2019 was observed over Marambio, Antarctica from the 7th to the 10th January, 2020. The smoke plume was transported thousands of kilometers over the Pacific Ocean, and reached the Antarctic Peninsula at a hight of 13 km. Ground-based Sun–Sky–Moon photometer belonging to the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) is used to analyze the transported smoke properties.
