One year records of AErosolROboticNEtwork (AERONET) sun photometer measurements were analyzed to investigate the seasonal and daily variations of columnar aerosol optical depth. Some irregularities of this time series are associated with aerosol intrusions. The aerosol layers indicated by these irregularities are identified and characterized using the extensive optical data from coincident CALIPSO satellite observations and ground based LIDAR.
