Abstract:

A review is presented of recently developed techniques to remotely sounding aerosol as well as of some results of the sensing are considered with a particular attention paid to the data on aerosol optical thickness. The most recent assessments of aerosol radiative forcing are being discussed in the context of "aerosol and climate" problem.
