Nocturnal aerosol optical depth measurements with modified sky radiometer POM-02 using the moon as a light source

<p>The majority of aerosol data are obtained from daytime measurements, and there are few datasets available for studying nighttime aerosol characteristics. In order to estimate the aerosol optical depth (AOD) and the precipitable water vapor (PWV) during the nighttime using the moon as a ligh...
