Short summary
We present a fast, interpretable machine learning method to retrieve key aerosol parameters from ground-based Sun-sky photometer measurements. Trained on simulated data covering diverse aerosol and atmospheric conditions, ensuring robustness and physical consistency. Applied to real observations, it agrees well with AERONET products and reduces computation time by orders of magnitude, offering a practical tool for monitoring aerosols and their effects on air quality and climate.
