Abstract
A reference dataset of multi-wavelength particle light scattering and hemispheric backscattering coefficients for different relative humidities (RH) between RH = 30 and 95% and wavelengths between λ = 450 nm and 700 nm is described in this work. Tandem-humidified nephelometer measurements from 26 ground-based sites around the globe, covering multiple aerosol types, have been re-analysed and harmonized into a single dataset. The dataset includes multi-annual measurements from long-term monitoring sites as well as short-term field campaign data. The result is a unique collection of RH-dependent aerosol light scattering properties, presented as a function of size cut. This dataset is important for climate and atmospheric model-measurement inter-comparisons, as a means to improve model performance, and may be useful for satellite and remote sensing evaluation using surface-based, in-situ measurements. | Design Type(s) | spectral data collection and processing objective • data integration objective • time series design | | Measurement Type(s) | light scattering | | Technology Type(s) | Nephelometry | | Factor Type(s) | geographic location • instrument • Environment • temporal_interval | | Sample Characteristic(s) | United States of America • climate system • Canada • The Netherlands • Greece • Germany • Portuguese Republic • South Korea • China • United Kingdom • Finland • Switzerland • Maldives Archipelago • Brazil • Republic of Ireland • Niger • India • Kingdom of Spain • Kingdom of Norway |
