英文摘要 | Soil erosion aerosols can be transported considerable distances, the Sahara being one of the major sources in the world. In June 2016 the volume scattering function of the atmospheric aerosol was determined in the Sierra Nevada, Spain, at an altitude of 2500 m. Measurements were performed with a polar nephelometer permitting measurements between scattering angles of 5 to 175 degrees. The values at the missing angles could be estimated to a high accuracy, using the shape of the scattering function adjacent to the missing angles, and thus a complete volume scattering function was available. During the measuring period intrusions of long-range transported Sahara aerosol happened several times. The classification of the aerosol was done by back trajectories and by the Angstrom exponent of the wavelength-dependent scattering coefficient, which was determined by a three-wavelength Integrating Nephelometer. The phase function of the Sahara aerosol had a stronger forward scattering, and less backscattering compared to the non-Sahara aerosol, which is in agreement with other findings for irregular particles. The asymmetry parameter of the phase function is the best characteristic to distinguish Sahara aerosol from non-Sahara aerosol. In this study the asymmetry parameter for the Sahara aerosol was larger than 0.65, whereas the non-Sahara aerosol had an asymmetry parameter below 0.6. A comparison with measurements performed with long-range transported Gobi desert aerosols observed in Kyoto, Japan, showed very similar results. |
