OTERO, L. A et al. Seven photometers of the aeronet network installed in the argentine territory: statistical analysis of the data and characterization of the aerosols. An. AFA [online]. 2018, vol.29, n.3, pp.78-82. ISSN 0327-358X.

On April 20th, 2017, a new sunphotometer of the AERONET - NASA network was installed inPilar, province of Córdoba, at the dependencies of the National Meteorological Service in order to measure the aerosol load of the region and especially to detect the biomass burning events that affect the center and north of the territory, and subsequently arrive to the province of Buenos Aires and La Pampa due to the wind transport. Afterinstalling this new instrument, the network has now 7 sunphotometerin the country, performing sistematic measurements. The first equipment was installed at CEILAP-UNIDEF (MINDEF-CONICET) - CITEDEF, on October 17th, 1999 in Buenos Aires. In this work the results obtained from a statistical analysis of the measurements from the 7 active stations are presented: CEILAP-BA, CEILAP-RG, CEILAP-Comodoro, CEILAP-Bariloche, CEILAP-Neuquén, Trelew and Pilar-Córdoba, to determine the monthly averaged values, aerosol optical depth tendencies, Ångstrӧm coefficient and classification of the typical aerosol-suspended type for each station.
