PollyXT Raman polarization lidar observations were performed at the Remote Sensing Laboratory (RSLab) in Warsaw (52.2109 degrees N, 20.9826 degrees E), Poland, in the framework of the European Aerosol Research Lidar Network (EARLINET) and the Aerosol, Clouds, and Trace gases Research Infrastructure (ACTRIS) projects. Data collected in July, August, and September of 2013, 2015, and 2016 were analysed using the classical Raman approach. In total, 246 sets of intact profiles, each set comprising particle extinction (alpha) and backscatter coefficients (beta) as well as linear particle depolarization ratios (delta) at 355 nm and 532 nm, were derived for statistical investigations and stored in the EARLINET/ACTRIS database. The main analysis was focused on intensive optical properties obtained within the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL). Their interrelations were discussed for different periods: the entire day; night-time, with respect to the nocturnal boundary layer (NL) and the residual boundary layer (RL); at sunrise, with respect to the morning transition boundary layer (MTL); and from late afternoon until sunset, with respect to the well-mixed boundary layer (WML). Within the boundary layer, the lidar-derived optical properties (entire day, 246 sets) revealed a mean aerosol optical depth (AOD(ABL)) of 0.20 +/- 0.10 at 355 nm and 0.11 +/- 0.06 at 532 nm; a mean Angstrom exponent (AEABL) of 1.54 +/- 0.37; a mean lidar ratio (LRABL) of 48 +/- 17 sr at 355 nm and 41 +/- 15 sr at 532 nm; a mean linear particle depolarization ratio (delta(ABL)) of 0.02 +/- 0.01 at 355 nm and 0 :05 +/- 0 :01 at 532 nm; and a mean water vapour mixing ratio (WVABL) of 8.28 +/- 2.46 g kg(-1). In addition, the lidar-derived daytime boundary layer optical properties (for the MTL and WML) were compared with the corresponding daytime columnar aerosol properties derived from the multi-filter rotating shadowband radiometer (MFR-7) measuring within the National Aerosol Research Network (PolandAOD-NET) and the CE318 sun photometer of the Aerosol Robotic NETwork (AERONET). A high linear correlation of the columnar aerosol optical depth values from the two latter instruments was obtained in Warsaw (a correlation coefficient of 0.98 with a standard deviation of 0.02). The contribution of the aerosol load in the summer and earlyautumn free troposphere can result in an AODCL value that is twice as high as the AOD(ABL) over Warsaw. The occurrence of a turbulence-driven aerosol burst from the boundary layer into the free troposphere can further increase this difference. Aerosol within the ABL and in the free troposphere was interpreted based on comparisons of the properties derived at different altitudes with values reported in the literature, which were characteristic for different aerosol types, in combination with backward trajectory calculations, satellite data, and model outputs. Within the boundary layer, the aerosol consisted of either urban anthropogenic pollution (similar to 61 %) or mixtures of anthropogenic aerosol with biomassburning aerosol (< 14 %), local pollen (< 7 %), or Arctic marine particles (< 5 %). No significant contribution of mineral dust was found in the boundary layer. The lidar-derived atmospheric boundary layer height (ABLH) and the AOD(ABL) exhibited a positive correlation (R of 0.76), associated with the local anthropogenic pollution (most pronounced for the RL and WML).

A positive correlation of the AODABL and LRABL and a negative correlation of the AE(ABL) and LRABL, as well as the expected negative trends for the WVABL (and surface relative humidity, RH) and delta(ABL), were observed. Relations of the lidar-derived aerosol properties within the ABL and the surface in situ measurements of particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than 10 mu m (PM10) and less than 2.5 mu m (PM2.5) measured by the Warsaw Regional Inspectorate for Environmental Protection (WIOS) network, and the fine-to-coarse mass ratio (FCMR) were investigated. The FCMR and surface RH showed a positive correlation even at nighttime (R of 0.71 for the MTL, 0.63 for the WML, and 0.6 for the NL), which generally lacked statistically significant relations. A weak negative correlation of the FCMR and delta(ABL) (more pronounced at 532 nm at nighttime) and no casual relation between the FCMR and AE(ABL) were found. Most interestingly, distinct differences were observed for the morning transition layer (MTL) and the well-mixed layer (WML). The MTL ranged up to 0.6-1 km, and was characterized by a lower AOD(ABL)(< 0.12), wetter conditions (RH 50-80 %), smaller particles (AE(ABL) of 1-2.2; FCMR from 0.5 to 3), and a low LRABL of between 20 and 40 sr. The WMLranged up to 1-2.5 km and exhibited a higher AOD(ABL) (reaching up to 0.45), drier conditions (RH 25-60 %), larger particles (AE(ABL) of 0.8-1.7; FCMR of 0.2-1.5), and a higher LRABL of up to 90 sr.
