Resumo
Nowadays there is an increasing concern about the direct and indirect influence of the aerosols in the Earth’s
radiative budget. Aerosols from biomass burning activities have been identified as a significant radiative forcing
agent. A significant concentration quantity of aerosol particles observed in the atmosphere can be associated
with intense anthropogenic biomass burning activity. The CALIPSO satellite and ground-based Lidar systems
are indispensable to provide the vertical structure and optical properties of aerosol and clouds on global and
local scale, respectively. The Brazilian mid-western region is one of the biggest producers of biomass burning in
the whole continent. Aerosols from biomass burning can be transported to distances of hundreds or thousands
of kilometers. It has been developed a computational routine to map the CALIPSO overpasses over the whole
country in order to retrieve the total coverage taking special attention in the Brazilian AERONET sites. In this
context, the measured data from AERONET, CALIPSO and MODIS Satellite and the MSP-Lidar system from
Instituto de Pesquisas Energ´eticas e Nucleares (IPEN) can be used to map the aerosols biomass burning plumes
transported from the mid-western to the southeastern region. In total 5 sites were chosen spanning from 0 to
23 South latitude and 46 to 60 West in longitude in coverage during 2007 and we were able to identify such
transports during the months of August and September.
