Abstract

The first results of complex observations and vertical profiling aerosol particles and wind parameters above the central part of St. Petersburg in day and night time are presented. Results include values of the extinction and backscattering coefficients, particle size distribution, depolarization rate, particle concentration and real and imagine parts of refractive index at different heights. These values allow indicating different kinds of atmospheric aerosol pollution in the air. Special attention is given to parameter space and time variations. Solar irradiance at the surface is calculated on the base of obtained aerosol content in different spectral regions. The influence of UV and IR solar radiation and air pollution on human health is estimated. Possible positive and negative impacts on skin, respiratory and heart diseases are considered. At present, the diseases caused by pollution are becoming more common. In the cities with strong pollution of sulfur gases, ammonia, hydrocarbons, the influence on the physical development of children is noted; allergic reactions also increase.
