The semi-enclosed nature of the Mediterranean Sea, together with its smaller inertia due to
the relative short residence time of its water masses, make it highly reactive to external …

This study presents in situ aircraft measurements of Saharan mineral dust transported over
the western Mediterranean basin in June–July 2013 during the ChArMEx/ADRIMED (the …

Measurements of aerosol optical properties and aerosol number size distribution obtained
during the period from December 2005 to November 2007 at Granada, an urban site in …

The Chemistry-Aerosol Mediterranean Experiment (ChArMEx; http://charmex. lsce. ipsl. fr) is

For the first time, the direct radiative effect (DRE) of aerosols on solar radiation is computed
over the entire Mediterranean basin, one of the most climatically sensitive world regions …

We investigated aerosol optical properties, mass concentration and chemical composition
over a 1 year period (from March 2006 to February 2007) at an urban site in Southern Spain …

This paper focuses on the assessment of atmospheric aerosol optical properties at the
surface and in atmospheric column during both desert dust and dust-free conditions over …

Aerosol absorption properties are of high importance to assess aerosol impact on regional
climate. This study presents an analysis of aerosol absorption products obtained over the …

A systematic study of black carbon (BC) vertical profiles measured at high-resolution over
three Italian basin valleys (Terni Valley, Po Valley and Passiria Valley) is presented. BC …

The daily (24 h) averages of the aerosol radiative forcing (ARF) at the surface and the top of
