About
A. M. de Frutos is a researcher focused on atmospheric aerosol monitoring and solar radiation measurement, with a particular emphasis on the Iberian Peninsula and the Caribbean. His work centers on the calibration and correction of sun photometer data, a critical step for ensuring the accuracy of aerosol optical depth (AOD) retrievals. He is perhaps best known for developing the KCICLO method, a technique for analyzing and correcting the false diurnal cycle in AOD measurements, which was published in 2004. This contribution addresses a systematic error in ground-based remote sensing, improving the reliability of aerosol data used in climate and air quality studies. His research also includes the deployment and preliminary analysis of sun photometer measurements in Camagüey, Cuba, as part of the AERONET and RIMA networks. While his individual paper citation counts are modest, his methodological work has provided a foundation for more accurate aerosol monitoring across multiple sites.
