Descripción
The atmosphere at North-Central Argentina Andes range is exceptionally clear for the placement of astrophysical/astronomical/solar observatories (Piacentini et al., Advances Space Research, 2016). However, this region is part of the Pacific fire belt, due to the large number of active volcanoes. Consequently, the possibility of having strong sporadic emissions of different gases and aerosols needs to be investigated. In the present work, we analyze in particular the SO2 trace gas, since it can affect significantly the solar UVB (280–320 nm) radiation. Also, particulate matter can attenuate this radiation in the UV-visible ranges. One of the most significant contributions to volcanic eruptions that could arrive at the selected San Antonio de los Cobres (SAC) location is the near Lascar volcano. We used satellite images form the OMI/KMNI/Aura/NASA satellite instrument, for deriving the intensity of the eruption at the SAC geographical point. An important eruption was that of the Puyehue/ Cordón Caulle volcanic complex at Chile Patagonia, in June 2011. No significant influence on the other selected El Leoncito (LEO) location was registered. We present aerosol optical depth (AOD550) satellite data obtained with the Deep Blue Level 2 data provided by the SeaWiFS/SeaStar/NASA satellite instrument for SAC and LEO places, showing that AOD550 for the whole period is extremely low (0.0262 for SAC and 0.0266 for LEO). We also present ground atmospheric aerosol concentration measurements as a function of aerosol diameter with a high quality GRIMM laser instrument for some days of campaign performed in those sites.
