Problems in Aerosol retrieval • AERONET network of sun-photometers in coastal regions high temporal frequency (15 min), no spatial information • Cruises using handheld radiometer Simbada transects information, just few cruises • MERIS ocean colour sensor spatial information, one sequence per day Helgoland Cuxhaven MER_RR2PNACR20030423_100626_00000090X_00423_05988_0000.N1
First results • 15th July, Atlantic air mass with low AOD870, good correlation • 5th Aug cirrus and glint, problems • 6th Aug, 0-20 km offshore high suspended sediment effects, 20-55km OK
