Abstract
Satellite remote sensing is increasingly applied in the field of environmental protection, especially in atmospheric monitoring. Here, a comprehensive review is provided on the development, limits, and prospects of remote sensing of the atmospheric environment in China. Firstly, the paper introduced the principle of detection of three types of atmospheric parameters and commonly used satellite data. Secondly, advances in retrieval methods, product validations, and applications in China were summarized. This included aerosol, particulate matter, haze, straw burning, dust storm, gaseous pollutant (sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and ozone), greenhouse gas (carbon dioxide and methane), and air quality monitoring and control. Thirdly, products widely applied in monitoring the atmospheric environment in China were analyzed. Finally, the outlooks for future development were discussed. This included application of China’s satellite data, enhancement of the accuracy of air pollution monitoring, and services for environmental management.
