Short summary
We present a global dataset of POlarization LIdar PHOtometer Networking (POLIPHON) dust conversion factors at 532 nm obtained using Aerosol RObotic NETwork (AERONET) observations at 137 sites for ice-nucleating particle (INP) and 123 sites for cloud condensation nucleation (CCN) calculations. We also conduct a comparison of dust CCN concentration profiles derived using both POLIPHON and the independent Optical Modelling of the CALIPSO Aerosol Microphysics (OMCAM) retrieval.
