Parameterization of the Vertical Profile of the Aerosol Constitution in the Lower Troposphere as a Function of Meteorological Conditions and Horizontal Extension.
Abstract
With the aid of five-fold double state impactors and particle size analyzers after Knollenberg continuous measurements were taken of the aerosol particle spectrum (between 0,1 and approx. 20/three micrometers) at mountain stations (740, 1780, and 3000 m a.s.l.). Many years' measuring series on a statistically significant basis are used to determine the dependence of the particle spectrum and particle concentration on altitude as a function of various meteorological parameters. Results based upon Knollenberg particle spectra are reported. By comparing rawinsonde data over 85 km horizontal distance, it is suggested that the data obtained at the stations were not influenced by the existence of the mountains.
