Physical properties of aerosol particles affecting climate in the Eastern Mediterranean atmosphere
Abstract
The climatic effect of atmospheric aerosol particles has not yet been fully clarified. The high spatial and temporal variability of aerosol concentrations makes the investigation of their physical and chemical properties in global scale crucial in order to estimate their total climatic effect. Mediterranean Basin aerosol is of special interest for global climate research since a variety of aerosol types can be found there, namely marine aerosols, anthropogenic aerosols and desert dust aerosols. The environmental research station of the University of Crete at Finokalia has been pointed out as an anchor station for the Eastern Mediterranean basin. The present work focuses on the physical properties of atmospheric aerosol particles at the station of Finokalia and three scientific goals have been distinguished: the study of aerosol particles size distributions in the area, the study of aerosol optical properties and the study of mineral dust events over the eastern Mediterranean. For the f ...
