LALINET lidar stations were used to track     down aerosols generated over Amazon region     and transported over the continent. These data     were merged with collocated Aeronet stations     in order to help in their identification together     with HYSPLIT simulations. The results show   potential indication of how aerosol can age     in their long transport over regions South and   Westward from the source areas by change of     their optical properties.
