| 内容記述 | To identify the aerosol size fraction that is responsible for the 10.6-micron backscatter and the morphological composition of these particles, values of backscatter coefficient at 0.532 micron, 0.694 micron, and 10.6 microns were determined both by direct measurement and by Mie computation from measured microphysical properties of aerosols over eastern Australia between 4 deg and 41 deg S. The values of backscatter coefficient determined from direct measurements at 10.6 microns were found to agree well with values obtained indirectly from calculations based on measured aerosol particle size distributions and properties. It was also found that backscatter at 10.6 microns and at visible wavelengths were sensitive to different regions of the aerosol size spectrum, with considerable day-to-day variability observed at all wavelengths. |
