Scroll up menus = an2000 Hamburg mALLYEAR LSCE EC355_AER
Modeled total aerosol extinction coefficient vertical profile for
the whole year 2000 in Hamburg. The horizontal black line represents the
station altitude. The vertical white lines show the days with lidar
measurements.

Modeled total aerosol extinction coefficient vertical profile for the month of May (05) in Hamburg. The horizontal black line represents the station altitude. The vertical white lines show the days with lidar measurements and give the numbers of these days.

Comparison of measured (in blue) and modeled (in red) total aerosol extinction coefficient profile on the 25th of May in Hamburg. The extinction coefficient profiles of each aerosol specie are also represented (sulfate : green curve, sea-salt : dashed green curve, BC : dashed black curve, POM : black curve, DUST : orange curve).
Scroll up menus = an2000 Hamburg mALLYEAR LSCE EC355_AERAVG
Average vertical profile of the extinction coefficient measured by the lidar (represented with a blue curve) together with two average profiles from the model (filtered for presence of measurements - represented with an orange curve - and all year means - represented with a red curve) in Hamburg. To obtain the measured average profile and the filtered modeled profile, we selected only one profile per day to avoid a bias due to the predominance of day with more measurements on the average.

Average vertical profile of the modeled extinction coefficient for each aerosol specie (sulfate : green curve, sea-salt : dashed green curve, BC : dashed black curve, POM : black curve, DUST : orange curve) and for total aerosol (all year means - represented with a red curve) in Hamburg.

Filtered average vertical profile of the modeled extinction coefficient for each aerosol specie (sulfate : green curve, sea-salt : dashed green curve, BC : dashed black curve, POM : black curve, DUST : orange curve) and for total aerosol (represented with a red curve) in Hamburg. To obtain the filtered modeled profile, we selected only one profile per day to avoid a bias due to the predominance of day with more measurements on the average.
Scroll up menus = an2000 NORTH mALLYEAR LSCE EC355_SPECIESFILT
Filtered average vertical profile of the modeled extinction coefficient for each aerosol specie (sulfate : green curve, sea-salt : dashed green curve, BC : dashed black curve, POM : black curve, DUST : orange curve) and for total aerosol (represented with a red curve) for the Northern stations (Aberysthwyth, Hamburg, Kühlungsborn, Leipzig, Münich). To obtain the filtered modeled profile, we selected only one profile per day to avoid a bias due to the predominance of day with more measurements on the average.
Scroll up menus = an2000 SOUTH mALLYEAR LSCE EC355_SPECIESFILT
Filtered average vertical profile of the modeled extinction coefficient for each aerosol specie (sulfate : green curve, sea-salt : dashed green curve, BC : dashed black curve, POM : black curve, DUST : orange curve) and for total aerosol (represented with a red curve) for the Southern stations (Leece, Naples, Potenza). To obtain the filtered modeled profile, we selected only one profile per day to avoid a bias due to the predominance of day with more measurements on the average.

Scatter plots of the extinction coefficient values in four different vertical layers (0-2 km, 2-4 km, 4-6 km and 6-8 km) in Hamburg. For each profile the mean values of measured and modeled aerosol extinction in a layer were calculated and are represented by a point on the graph. The regression line between model and lidar data is represented in each layer. The values of this regression line slope and of the correlation coefficient are indicated too.
Scroll up menus = an2000 NORTH mALLYEAR LSCE EC355_AERSCAT
Scatter plots of the extinction coefficient values in four different vertical layers (0-2 km, 2-4 km, 4-6 km and 6-8 km). These extinction values are obtained using all the profiles measured at the Northern European stations (Aberystwyth, Hamburg, Kühlungsborn, Leipzig and Münich). For each profile the mean values of measured and modeled aerosol extinction in a layer were calculated and are represented by a point on the graph. The regression line between model and lidar data is represented in each layer. The values of this regression line slope and of the correlation coefficient are indicated too.
