Abstract
The concentration and composition in the Earth's atmosphere varies substantially in space and time. Our efforts focus on assessing the impact of this inhomogeneity on the transmission over optical propagation links. In particular, we focus on the error that is made when assuming default aerosol properties, and we investigate the representativeness of point measurements for characterizing an optical link of multiple kilometres.
