Remote Sensing, 2015 A comprehensive set of monthly mean aerosol optical thickness (AOT) data from coastal and island AErosol RObotic NETwork (AERONET) stations is used to evaluate Global Aerosol Climatology Project (GACP) retrievals for the period 1995–2009 during which ...

Aerosol‐Cloud Interactions: Overcoming a Barrier to Projecting Near‐Term Climate Evolution and Risk
AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Aerosol‐cloud interactions (ACI) are a major source of uncertainty in climate science, critically affecting our ability to project near‐term climate evolution and assess societal risks. These interactions influence effective radiative forcing, cloud dynamics, and precipitation patterns, yet remain insufficiently constrained due to limitations ...

From Standard to Bayesian: Revisiting Ocean Color Model Evaluation
Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Ocean color models, facilitated by satellite‐based remote sensing technologies, have transformed our ability to monitor chlorophyll‐a concentrations at the ocean's surface. These models decode changes in the spectral properties of reflected sunlight to map phytoplankton biomass across extensive spatial and temporal scales.

Evaluation of VIIRS Land Aerosol Model Selection with AERONET Measurements [PDF]
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2017 The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) is a next-generation polar-orbiting operational environmental sensor with a capability for global aerosol observations. Identifying land aerosol types is important because aerosol types are a basic input in retrieving aerosol optical properties for VIIRS. The VIIRS algorithm can automatically select

Estimation of aerosol complex refractive indices for both fine and coarse modes simultaneously based on AERONET remote sensing products [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2017 Climate change assessment, especially model evaluation, requires a better understanding of complex refractive indices (CRIs) of atmospheric aerosols – separately for both fine and coarse modes.

COMPARISON OF THREE TYPES OF AEROSOL PRODUCTS DURING 2015–2017 IN CHINA [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2018 In this study, we use sunphotometer (AERONET) data as reference to evaluate MODIS, Himawari-08, and MERRA-2 aerosol products over China. AERONET data from Beijing, Xianghe, Xuzhou, Taihu and Hong Kong are used.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.Abstract Observations reveal significant negative trends in reflected shortwave radiation over the 21st century. The global‐mean darkening is primarily driven by clouds, while the global‐mean atmospheric clear‐sky signal is near zero due to offsetting trends in the two hemispheres.

Observation of rapid aerosol deposition according to AERONET data [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2019 Measurements at the AERONET station in Dushanbe showed that the diurnal variations of the aerosol optical thickness (AOT), humidity, Ångström parameter depend on the stratification of the atmosphere. It is established that the dynamics of the aerosol in the ground inversion temperature layer is determined by the effect of double diffusion, which is ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.Abstract Accurate retrieval of satellite‐derived aerosol optical depth (AOD) is critical for air quality forecasting, especially when AOD is assimilated into models. However, if retrieval errors in the satellite‐derived AOD are not corrected or characterized, they can lead to false analysis increments and ultimately degrade the quality of data ...
