Abstract:

We discuss characteristics of the spectral aerosol optical depth (AOD) of the atmosphere, measured using sun photometers in high-latitude regions (Spitsbergen, Tiksi, Yakutsk). The seasonal variations are characterized by a decrease in AOD from spring to fall by approximately two times in Yakutia and 1.5 times in the region of Spitsbergen. It is shown that the high selectivity of the spectral AOD dependence in warm period (with Angstrom parameters varying from 1.3 to 1.8) was caused by low content of coarse aerosol. Based on long-term that satellite observations systematically overestimate AOD over Arctic seas.

Keywords:

Arctic, aerosol optical depth, annual behavior, spatial distribution
