![Fig. 1: Scatterplots of layer-mean aerosol optical properties of the automatic versus manual profiles. Shown are the scatterplots for the backscatter coefficients at 355 (a), 532 (b), and 1064 nm (c) wavelength, the Ångström exponents for the 355/532 extinction (d), 355/532 backscatter (e), and 532/1064 nm backscatter wavelength pairs (f), the particle depolarization ratios at 355 (g) and 532 nm wavelength (h), the extinction coefficients at 355 (i) and 532 nm (j), and the lidar ratios at 355 (k) and 532 nm wavelength (l). N denotes the number of layer means. The least-square regression line (dashed magenta), the coefficient of determination (R2), the root-mean-square error (RMSE), the mean absolute error (MAE), the mean bias error (MBE), and the identity line (solid black) are given.

@olarjournal.bsky.social#Atmospheric particles may have significantly slowed surface warming over India.
New research in Ocean-Land-Atmosphere Research shows that #aerosols and #clouds contributed to substantial surface dimming over the region during 2001–2024, offsetting much of the observed #warming trend.👇

@drtomharris.bsky.socialThe Earth is dimming, allowing more solar radiation to be absorbed, pushing up the energy imbalance and driving the accelerated warming being witnessed around the world. Why is this happening and could there be a solution?

@marushka-t.bsky.socialBecause we didn't already have enough to worry about, there's this.
