Description:

Constraint of the vertical distribution of aerosol particles is crucial for the study of aerosol plume structure, aerosol radiative effects, and ultimately monitoring surface air pollution. We developed an algorithm to retrieve the aerosol optical central height (AOCH) of absorbing aerosols by using, for the first time, the oxygen (O2) A and B absorption band measurements from the TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) over dark targets.
