The potential accuracy for retrieval of vertical profiles of scattering and absorption aerosol coefficients from outgoing and upward spectral radiance measurements in the 0.76mum O_2 band is analyzed. The information content of the remote method for high vertical resolution is small even in case of very low measurement errors. The best retrieval accuracy is achieved for ground layer (0-2 km) where the big amount of aerosol particles is concentrated. The additional information for 12-20 km layer can be received in the presence of thick stratospheric aerosol layer, for example, after volcanic eruptions. The possibilities of remote method are considerably improved for retrieval with low vertical resolution. The method under consideration permits to retrieve really only an aerosol volume scattering coefficient, but not absorption one.
