Abstract:

The results of investigations of the atmospheric optical depth in the spectral range 0.447 to 1.061 mm carried out in some regions over the central Atlantic after Mt. Pinatubo eruption are discussed. These results clearly show that an essential increase of the atmospheric turbidity took place over the Atlantic due to the eruptive cloud of atmospheric aerosol. The strongest changes of the atmospheric optical depth occurred in the short—wave region of the spectral range under study.
