At a suburban location in southern Korea, the optical properties of the atmosphere were characterized over a horizontal light path of 1.5 km (in two ways) from 22 October to 19 November 2002. This was achieved by measuring light extinction with a long path differential optical absorption spectrometer system in the ultraviolet and visible wavelength region. The extinction coefficients were obtained relatively as a ratio of a target air spectrum to a defined reference spectrum measured over the same light path (290–760 nm). To assess the measured extinction coefficients, the extinction coefficients at 550 nm were compared to those measured with a commercial long-path transmissometer.To avoid the absorption of known gases (H2O, NO2, and O3), extinction coefficients at the spectral bands of 325, 394, 472, 550, 580, 680, and 753 nm, with 3 nm window widths, were selected and analyzed for the purpose of the study of the aerosol properties. Importantly, the atmospheric physical properties during the episodes (such as a biomass burning or a dust storm) were investigated by means of the Angstrom parameters and the mass ratio of fine-to-coarse particles. In addition, it was found that the Angstrom exponents decrease monotonously for relative humidity above 50%.
