“independent” POLDER/PARASOL measurements : • VIEWS:NQ= 16: (800 ≤ Q ≤ 1800) • INTENSITY (I): Ntl=6 (for aerosol): (0.44, 0.49, 0.56, 0.67, 0.865, 1.02 mm) • Ntl=3 (for gas absorption): (0.763, 0.765, 0.910 mm) • POLARIZATION (Q, U): NPl=3: (0.49, 0.67, 0.865 mm) • SINGLE OBSERVATION: • (Ntl+NPl)×NQ= (6+3)×16= 144 a lot !!! – as much as AERONET Helsinki, August 19-21, 2013

New POLDER/PARASOL algorithm(GRASP) (Dubovik et al, AMT, 2011) • The new algorithm uses complete set of PARASOL angular measurements in all spectral bands including both radiance and linear polarization measurements. • Continuous space of aerosol and surface properties is used. • The algorithm is based on statistically optimized fitting. The core of the new PARASOL algorithm is based on the same concept as AERONET aerosol retrieval (O. Dubovik and M. King, 2000; O. Dubovik, 2004; O. Dubovik et al, 2006). Helsinki, August 19-21, 2013
The concept of the GRASP algorithm Two scenarios of retrieval (Dubovik et al., AMT, 2011): • Conventional: single-pixel retrieval (each single pixel is inverted independently) • New concept: multiple-pixel retrieval (group of pixels are inverted simultaneously) Bern, July 15-19, 2013
