Study of the angular polarimetric response of aerosols and their microphysical characteristics

Key Points

• The study aims to analyze how aerosols respond to light from different angles and to characterize their physical properties.
• Utilized angular polarimetric techniques to measure aerosol optical properties
• Characterized microphysical features of aerosols based on measurements
• Conducted the project as part of a Master of Science program at the University of Sao Paulo
• Identified specific angular responses related to different aerosol types
• Correlated microphysical characteristics with scattering patterns observed in polarimetric data
