It is well known that atmospheric aerosols have both a direct and an indirect impact on the Earth's systems and have natural or anthropogenic origins. In this paper we present the results of the 2022 spring-time lidar measurements conducted within the European Aerosol Research Lidar Network (EARLINET) using a multi-wavelength Raman and depolarization LIDAR system operated in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. The Cluj-Napoca lidar system (CLOP) emission is based on a Nd-YAG laser Continuum INLITE II-30, which has a repetition ...

In the era of rapid urbanization which has a great implication in converting the natural landscape into artificial surfaces, Land Surface Temperature (LST) is an important parameter which plays an important role in the studies of urban thermal environment, meteorological, hydrological and climatological applications and Global climate change. Data and images acquired from satellites offer information that can facilitate public and private decision - making. This study investigates the Land Surface Temperature (LST...
