Design and performance/measurement simulation studies for a ER-2 sunphotometerWork and results, including developed software, obtained under this grant (NAG 2-620) have been reported in various progress reports, an M.S. Thesis, and software programs. The purpose of this final report is simply to provide a documented listing of what has already been reported. This includes the following: (1) Conceptual Design and Simulation of a Spectral Sunphotometer for the ER-2 Aircraft; (2) Continued Simulation and Design Studies for an ER-2 Sunphotometer; and (3) Simulation and Performance Studies of a Spectra Sunphotometer for the ER-2 Aircraft. Also, software and computational results for modeling airmass and diffuse light effects due to aerosols were provided in support of NASA ARC research on the effects of aerosols resulting from the Pinatubo volcanic eruptions. The references for these articles are as follows: (1) Post Pinatubo Optical Depth Spectra vs. Latitude and Vortex Structure; and (2) Pinatubo and Pre-Pinatubo Optical-Depth Spectra -- Mauna Loa Measurements, Comparisons, Inferred Particle Size Distributions, Radiative Effects, and Relationships to Lidar Data.
