Reconstruction of microstructure parameters of the coarsely dispersed aerosol from spectral measurements of the aerosol optical thickness during a one-year observation period from their regression relations using a finite sample

Results of reconstruction of the volume concentration and geometric cross section of the coarsely dispersed aerosol by solving the inverse problem for spectral measurements of the aerosol optical thickness (AOT) and calculated from regression relations for the AOT measured at wavelengths of 2.203 and 1.557 mu m are compared. It is shown that the regression equations retrieved from the data collected during a one month period allow the microstructural parameters of coarsely dispersed particles to be estimated for a one year period practically without loss of accuracy.
