摘要
The All-Sky Imager developed by the Atmospheric Physics Group has been tested for aerosol characterization. Different neural network-based models calculate the aerosol optical depth (AOD) for two wavelengths and the Angstrom, turbidity parameter a using as input parameters data extracted from the principal plane of sky images from the All-Sky Imager. The models use data from a CIMEL CE318 radiometer for training and validation. The deviations between model and reference values are in the range of uncertainties assigned to Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) network. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
