Remote Sensing Solutions - Photometer
Atmospheric aerosol particles affect the atmosphere’s radiation balance by scattering and absorbing sunlight. Moreover, the particles act as condensation nuclei for clouds and affect their reflectivity. In addition, aerosols have negative health effects and they reduce visibility. Aerosols are emitted into the atmosphere from both natural and anthropogenic sources. Different types of aerosols have different effects on the radiation balance, thus global monitoring and typing aerosols is of vital importance. Tropospheric aerosol imposes one of the least understood impacts on the Earth’s climate. It is difficult to define characteristic aerosol properties. Yet they are needed at high accuracy on global and seasonal scales to create confidence in model derived predictions on the aerosol climatic impact and the climate change attributed to anthropogenic aerosol.

Sun Sky - Model CE318-T - Lunar Multispectral Photometer
The CE318 is the reference for automatic multispectral atmospheric photometry. Developed for the NASA in 1992, it was constantly improved to meet the growing requirements of AERONET (AErosol RObotic NETwork), the worldwide federation of networks dedicated to the measurement of atmospheric aerosols and federated by the NASA. Other independent networks like SKYNET, CARSNET, and SONET also operate CE318 ...

Remote Sensing Solutions - LiDARs
Atmospheric aerosol particles affect the atmosphere’s radiation balance by scattering and absorbing sunlight. Moreover, the particles act as condensation nuclei for clouds and affect their reflectivity. In addition, aerosols have negative health effects and they reduce visibility. The characterization of aerosol concentration and aerosol properties in these models is highly parameterized and frequently far from reality. Some of the aerosol information in these models due to their need for global coverage is based on satellite data. These data by themselves carry significant uncertainties. It is our goal to validate critical aerosol assumptions in models or satellite retrievals requiring ground-based monitoring. Cimel develops several active and passive remote sensing solutions used in the measurement of atmospheric aerosols. Passive instruments measure radiation emitted by the sun and the Earth while active instruments have their own radiation source (laser).

Remote Sensing Solutions - AAMS – Automatic Aerosol Monitoring Solutions
The effects of atmospheric aerosols at global scale on climate change and environmental evolution are critical for coming generations and the future of our planet. Cimel provides instrument synergies between Photometers and LiDARs through a unique monitoring software iAAMS, dedicated to the aerosols study and analysis. The obtained parameters are the characterization of aerosol types, the extinction and backscatter profile of mass concentration. Cimel’s AAMS is able to automatically locate, identify and quantify aerosols, layer by layer, day and night.
