| Abstract: | This study presents a comprehensive 5-year period assessment of aerosol optical depth (AOD) and Å ngströn Exponent (AE) data from a hand-held Calitoo sun photometer on board the Ángeles Alvariño research vessel. Observations spanned March 2018 to September 2023, focusing on key maritime regions such as the Canary Islands, coasts of North Africa, the Mediterranean, Portugal, the Cantabrian, and the Bay of Biscay. The Calitoo device measures solar irradiance at three wavelengths (465, 540, and 619 nm). |

| Sponsorship : | The AERONET sun photometers at the Izaña Observatory (IZO) were calibrated through the AEROSPAIN Central Facility (https://aerospain.aemet.es/), supported by the European Community Research Infrastructure Action under the ACTRIS grant (agreement no. 871115). The authors thank all the principal investigators and their staff for establishing and maintaining the NASA-MODIS and ECMWF-CAMS. |
