Based on microphysical and optical properties of black carbon (BC), water soluble component (WASO), insoluble component (INSO) and mineral dust (DUST) provided by optical properties of aerosols and clouds (OPAC) model, mass concentration of the four components were retrieved and their contributions to total aerosol optical depth were calculated by using aerosol properties acquired from ground-based sun-sky radiometer measurements during APEC Forum days in Beijing in 2014. Results show that the average AOD (440 nm) on APEC Forum days (0.25) is much lower than that of pre-Forum days (0.72) and post-Forum days (0.57), and WASO dominantly contributes to the total aerosol optical depth. Mass density of BC, WASO, INSO, DUST is respectively 0.8 μg/m3, 139.6 μg/m3, 184.2 μg/m3, 194.3 μg/m3 on pre-Forum days, 1.1 μg/m3, 56.4 μg/m3, 40.3 μg/m3, 7.8 μg/m3 on APEC Forum days, and 1.0 μg/m3, 126.6 μg/m3, 157.1 μg/m3, 30.9 μg/m3 on post-Forum days. BC mass density doesn’t change much during APEC Forum, while the numeric numbers of mass densities of WASO, INSO, and DUST in APEC Forum days are much lower compared to those of pre-Forum days and post-Forum days. This illustrates clearly that the control measures for improving air quality undertaken by the government have been taking effect during APEC Forum days. In－situ measurements of BC concentration were used by aethalometer to verify the BC retrieval and find that the retrieved BC mass concentration agrees well with measured content with the correlation coefficient R2 of 0.68..

Retrieval Atmospheric Aerosol Optical Depth over China from AVHRR by Multiple Regression Method
Ling GAO, Jun LI, Lin CHEN, and Liyang ZHANG
An algorithm was developed to retrieve aerosol optical depth (AOD) from AVHRR over land for climate change studies. The multiple regression method was employed by using spatially and temporally collocated MODIS AOD and AVHRR Level 1b measurements to generate regression coefficients from 2008 to 2011. Validation with AEAn algorithm was developed to retrieve aerosol optical depth (AOD) from AVHRR over land for climate change studies. The multiple regression method was employed by using spatially and temporally collocated MODIS AOD and AVHRR Level 1b measurements to generate regression coefficients from 2008 to 2011. Validation with AERONET AOD measurements and comparison with MODIS AOD product have been conducted to evaluate the uncertainty of AVHRR AOD retrievals over land from 2003 to 2007. It is found that the distribution pattern of the seasonal mean AOD is reasonable. The AOD from AVHRR has a tendency to be consistent with that from MYD04. Compared AVHRR with AERONET in Beijing and Xianghe, the correlation coefficients are larger than 0.6. These results show that the multiple regression method has the potential to retrieve a long-term AOD climatology data from AVHRR over land. Error sources about this retrieving algorithm were also discussed..

Based oField of view (FOV) is the basic parameter of sun-photometer and also the key parameter for transfer calibration and inter-comparison of sun-photometers using an integrating sphere as light source in the laboratory. Obtaining high-precision FOV is important to improve the accuracy of sun-photometer calibration. Based on the matrix measurement method, a system using laser as a light source to measure the FOV of CE318 sun-photometer is developed, and then the FOV results of matrix method are compared with the transfer calibration method. The results indicate that the matrix measurement with laser has a FOV uncertainty of 0.4%～1.1%. Because of the movement during measurement process and divergence angle of sun, the FOV uncertainty based on matrix measurement with sun is about 1.3%～1.4% which is larger than the laser result. In addition, the more historical calibration records, the more accurate FOV can be obtained by using transfer calibration method by comparing with matrix approach with laser, which suggests that the transfer calibration method can obtain accurate FOV when historical records are enough..

Lidar can obtain three-dimensional aerosol information.

Fernald inversion method was used to retrieve vertical profile of atmospheric aerosol extinction coeffLidar can obtain three-dimensional aerosol information. In 2010, the Mie-scattering lidar was used to acquire the observation data for 15 days during the China Radiometric Calibration Site (CRCS2010) field experiment. Fernald inversion method was used to retrieve vertical profile of atmospheric aerosol extinction coefficient in this region. Its impacts on the radiometric calibration are analyzed. Observations results indicate that there is an aerosol layer of high concentration values from the near-surface layer to 2～4 km in Dunhuang area. The aircraft for radiometric calibration should fly above this altitude to avoid the effect of the high concentrations aerosol layer. On the basis of the aerosol profiles of MODTRAN(MODerate resolution atmospheric TRANsmission) radiative transfer model and the measured aerosol profiles, the radiation simulation was carried out respectively. The results showed that, different degrees of differences existed among FY3A/MERSI, all visible-near infrared channels, whereas the blue channels (<500 nm) had 4%～5% of the radiation difference..
