    (Revista Boliviana de Física, 2012) Estevan, René; Benouna, Yasmine; Torres, Benjamín; Antuña, Juan. C.; Barja, Boris; Hernández, Carlos E.; Toledano, Carlos; Fuertes, David; González, Ramiro; Cachorro, Victoria E.; de Frutos, Ángel M.
    Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) measurements, carried out with a sun photometer CIMEL CE-318, installed in Camagüey, Cuba, are reported. More than 700 days of measurements are analyzed, of them 400 days corresponds to level 2.0 of Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) dataset. These data cover from October 7, 2008 to April 22, 2010. To the level 1.5 corresponds more than 300 days from June 3, 2010 to June 17, 2011. The average value of AOD for the first period (level 2.0) is ta(500 nm) = 0.14, while for the second ta(500 nm) = 0.17, both cases with relatively high values. These AOD values confirm preliminary results about the Maritime Mixed characteristic for the Camagüey site. Several Saharan dust events are reported during the analyzed period.
