Synergetic Observations by Ground-Based and Space Lidar Systems and Aeronet Sun-Radiometers: A Step to Advanced Regional Monitoring of Large Scale Aerosol Changes

The paper presents the preliminary results of the lidar&radiometer measurement campaign (LRMC-2017), estimation of statistical relations between aerosol mode concentrations retrieved from CALIOP and ground-based lidar stations and case study of fire smoke events in the Eurasian regions using combined ground-based and space lidar and radiometer observations.
