Abstract
The generalized statistical characteristics of the results of long-term two-point measurements of atmospheric aerosol parameters carried out in the Middle Urals are presented. The characteristics of the aerosol optical depth (AOD) and the features of the temporal variability of aerosol atmospheric turbidity in Yekaterinburg and the rural background area are compared. The differences in the mean values, interannual, annual, and diurnal variability of AOD, and of coarse and fine AOD modes are found.
