Highlights

  • Aerosols play an important role in the radiative balance of the Earth climate system

  • Employing data from Aerosol Robotics NETwork (AERONET), they found that the AERONET-derived particle depolarization ratios were generally within the range of those provided by lidar observations for each aerosol type: dust, polluted dust, smoke, non-absorbing, moderately-absorbing and high-absorbing pollution, advancing in the identification and classification of aerosol types using remote sensing techniques

  • This study aims to improve the merged Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) performance by introducing a new regression method (DTBRG), depending on the normalized difference vegetation index values when DT and DB AOD are valid

Summary

Introduction

Aerosols play an important role in the radiative balance of the Earth climate system. Recent developments in remote sensing and coordination of ground-based instruments as networks, such as Aerosol Robotics NETwork (AERONET), have allowed a better characterization of aerosols at a global scale.
