Abstract
⺠Effects of a strong Saharan dust event on diffuse and global solar irradiance. ⺠Decrease of the global irradiance about 20% with respect to clean days. ⺠Increase of the diffuse irradiance between 200% and 400%. ⺠High value of the aerosol radiative forcing efficiency (~ 124 W/m2/AOD). ⺠Possible influence of absorbing anthropogenic particles.
