Abstract

We present a theoretical study of the aerosol contribution to the top-of-atmosphere (TOA) radiance of the atmosphereocean system in the visible and near infrared. Within the linear approximation in the aerosol optical thickness, an analytic expression for the aerosol contribution to the TOA radiance is derived. The expression obtained generalizes the well-known Gordon’s quasi-single-scattering formula with allowance for the interaction between Rayleigh and aerosol scattering. The accuracy and the range of validity of the linear approximation in the aerosol optical thickness are evaluated by comparison with direct numerical calculations of the radiative transfer in the atmosphere-ocean system, performed with the DISORT program. Applications of the results obtained for aerosol loadings representative for the Barents and Kara seas is discussed.
