A Study of Global Aerosol Optical Climatology with Two-Channel AVHRR Remote Sensing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Global distributions of the aerosol optical thickness and Ångström exponent are estimated from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer channel-1 and -2 radiances for four ...
Single-Scattering Albedo and Radiative Forcing of Various Aerosol Species with a Global Three-Dimensional Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Global distributions of the aerosol optical thickness, Ångström exponent, and single-scattering albedo are simulated using an aerosol transport model coupled with an atmospheric general circulation model. All the main ...
Optical Properties of Atmospheric Aerosol in Maritime Environments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Systematic characterization of aerosol over the oceans is needed to understand the aerosol effect on climate and on transport of pollutants between continents. Reported are the results of a comprehensive optical and physical ...
Advances in the Ocean Color Component of the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET-OC)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Tropospheric Aerosol Optical Thickness from the GOCART Model and Comparisons with Satellite and Sun Photometer Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Georgia Institute of Technology?Goddard Global Ozone Chemistry Aerosol Radiation and Transport (GOCART) model is used to simulate the aerosol optical thickness τ for major types of tropospheric aerosols including ...
Atmospheric Aerosol Optical Properties in the Persian Gulf
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Aerosol optical depth measurements over Bahrain acquired through the ground-based Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) are analyzed. Optical depths obtained from ground-based sun/sky radiometers showed a pronounced temporal ...
Retrieval of Aerosol Scattering and Absorption Properties from Photopolarimetric Observations over the Ocean during the CLAMS Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The extensive set of measurements performed during the Chesapeake Lighthouse and Aircraft Measurements for Satellites (CLAMS) experiment provides a unique opportunity to evaluate aerosol retrievals over the ocean from ...
Aerosol Data Sources and Their Roles within PARAGON
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We briefly but systematically review major sources of aerosol data, emphasizing suites of measurements that seem most likely to contribute to assessments of global aerosol climate forcing. The strengths and limitations of ...
Applying Advanced Ground-Based Remote Sensing in the Southeast Asian Maritime Continent to Characterize Regional Proficiencies in Smoke Transport Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his work describes some of the most extensive ground-based observations of the aerosol profile collected in Southeast Asia to date, highlighting the challenges in simulating these observations with a mesoscale perspective. ...
Using the PARAGON Framework to Establish an Accurate, Consistent, and Cohesive Long-Term Aerosol Record
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A comprehensive and cohesive aerosol measurement record with consistent, well-understood uncertainties is a prerequisite to understanding aerosol impacts on long-term climate and environmental variability. Objectives to ...
