title = "Tropical intercontinental optical measurement network of aerosol, precipitable water and total column ozone",
abstract = "A new generation of automatic sunphotometers will be used to systematically monitor clear sky total column aerosol concentration and optical properties, precipitable water and total column ozone diurnally and annually in West Africa and South America beginning in 1992. The instruments are designed to measure direct beam sun, solar aureole and sky radiances in 9 narrow spectral bands from the UV to the near Infrared on an hourly basis. This paper describes the projects participating in the networks, the instrumentation, and the algorithms required to reduce the data for subsequent analysis.",
