The focus was on the long-range transport of Canadian aged-smoke plumes observed at El Arenosillo\/Huelva (Spain) from 7 to 8 September 2017. Both the columnar and height-resolved microphysical and optical properties were assessed in comparison with AERONET data and vertical lidar-retrieved profiles, respectively. In particular, the vertical properties were also derived using the POLIPHON approach, which serves as a comparison for GRASP retrievals. The retrieved columnar aerosol microphysical properties (volume concentration and effective radius) showed an excellent agreement, with negligible differences, and were within the uncertainties. Nevertheless, for the retrieved columnar optical properties, we could only perform an individual comparison, due to the strong AERONET limitations, and although the agreements were generally good, no conclusions were obtained, due to differences in the real refractive index and due to the large uncertainties obtained in the retrievals. For the vertical profiles, however, we present a large advance that permits obtaining aerosol backscatter and extinction coefficients, plus volume concentrations, without the need for internal assumptions (extinction-to-backscatter ratios and depolarization measurements), due to the very good agreement observed between GRASP and the lidar-derived methodologies. However, the separation of the properties into their fine and coarse modes was not feasible using the one-wavelength elastic lidar measurements with the GRASP retrieval configuration used in this work. Therefore, current studies are being addressed to assessing the introduction of lidar depolarization in the GRASP code as an encouraged added-value, for the improvement of the retrieval of vertical aerosol properties.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs14153619","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,28]],"date-time":"2022-07-28T22:43:26Z","timestamp":1659048206000},"page":"3619","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Retrieval of Aged Biomass-Burning Aerosol Properties by Using GRASP Code in Synergy with Polarized Micro-Pulse Lidar and Sun\/Sky Photometer"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8825-830X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mar\u00eda-\u00c1ngeles","family":"L\u00f3pez-Cayuela","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Atmospheric Research and Instrumentation Branch, Instituto Nacional de T\u00e9cnica Aeroespacial (INTA), Torrej\u00f3n de Ardoz, 28850 Madrid, Spain"},{"name":"Applied Physics Department, University of Granada (UGR), 18071 Granada, Spain"}]},{"given":"Milagros E.","family":"Herrera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"GRASP-SAS, Villeneuve d\u2019Ascq, 59655 Lille, France"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4859-471X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carmen","family":"C\u00f3rdoba-Jabonero","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Atmospheric Research and Instrumentation Branch, Instituto Nacional de T\u00e9cnica Aeroespacial (INTA), Torrej\u00f3n de Ardoz, 28850 Madrid, Spain"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7679-6135","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daniel","family":"P\u00e9rez-Ram\u00edrez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Applied Physics Department, University of Granada (UGR), 18071 Granada, Spain"},{"name":"Andalusian Institute for Earth System Research (IISTA-CEAMA), University of Granada (UGR), 18006 Granada, Spain"}]},{"given":"Clara Violeta","family":"Carvajal-P\u00e9rez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Atmospheric Research and Instrumentation Branch, Instituto Nacional de T\u00e9cnica Aeroespacial (INTA), Torrej\u00f3n de Ardoz, 28850 Madrid, Spain"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3482-6460","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Oleg","family":"Dubovik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratoire d\u2019Optique Atmosph\u00e9rique (LOA), UMR 8518 CNRS, University of Lille, 59000 Lille, France"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8317-2304","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Juan Luis","family":"Guerrero-Rascado","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Applied Physics Department, University of Granada (UGR), 18071 Granada, Spain"},{"name":"Andalusian Institute for Earth System Research (IISTA-CEAMA), University of Granada (UGR), 18006 Granada, Spain"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"2-1201408","article-title":"GRASP: A Versatile Algorithm for Characterizing the Atmosphere","volume":"25","author":"Dubovik","year":"2014","journal-title":"SPIE Newsroom"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"706851","DOI":"10.3389\/frsen.2021.706851","article-title":"A Comprehensive Description of Multi-Term LSM for Applying Multiple a Priori Constraints in Problems of Atmospheric Remote Sensing: GRASP Algorithm, Concept, and Applications","volume":"2","author":"Dubovik","year":"2021","journal-title":"Front.
