“…The AOD data were calculated with the ASTPwin software (Cimel Ltd. Co.) for the Level 1.0 AOD (raw results without cloud screening), the Level 1.5 AOD (cloud-screened AOD based on the work of Smirnov et al, (2000)) and the Ångström exponent between 440 and 870 nm. Daily and monthly mean values of the AOD, Ångström exponent and PM 10 were calculated.…”

“…All simulations and analysis in this paper are implemented for cloud-free conditions. For the AERONET database these conditions are assured by a cloud-screening algorithm [Smirnov et al, 2000a] considering optical thickness measurements. In addition, the symmetry of the sky radiances in the solar almucantar measured in the right and left hemispheres is checked.…”
