Abstract: | A sensitivity test of the aerosol properties retrieval is conducted using nadir viewing instruments on board the ENVISAT-1 platform trying to reproduce the natural variability of the aerosol field. The analysis highlights problems arising in the retrieval when aerosol loading, relative humidity, and cloud coverage are simultaneously varied. |
