A comparative study of aerosol microphysical properties retrieved from ground-based remote sensing and aircraft in situ measurements during a Saharan dust event

In this work we present an analysis of aerosol microphysical properties during a mineral dust event taking advantage of the combination of different state-of-the art retrieval techniques applied to active and passive remote sensing measurements and the evaluation of some of those techniques using independent data acquired from in-situ aircraft measurements.
