Vertical profiles of aerosol optical properties and the solar heating rate estimated by combining sky radiometer and lidar measurements

The SKYLIDAR algorithm was developed to estimate vertical profiles of aerosol optical properties from sky radiometer (SKYNET) and lidar (AD-Net) measurements. The solar heating rate was also estimated from the SKYLIDAR retrievals. The algorithm consists of two retrieval steps: (1) columnar propertie...
