Aerosol optical depth over Lauder, New Zealand

Geophysical Research Letters, 2009
Aerosol optical depths (AOD) measured over Lauder in Central Otago, New Zealand in 1996–1997, and continuously since 1999, are amongst the lowest observed worldwide. The Lauder measurements show a seasonal cycle in AOD with a winter minimum and summer local maximum, and there is a springtime peak that is probably due to biomass burning.

Measurement of aerosol optical depth and sub-visual cloud detection using the optical depth sensor (ODS) [PDF]

Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2015
Abstract. A small and sophisticated optical depth sensor (ODS) has been designed to work in the atmosphere of Earth and Mars. The instrument measures alternatively the diffuse radiation from the sky and the attenuated direct radiation from the sun on the surface.

Climatological aspects of aerosol optical properties in Northern Greece [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2003
Measurements of aerosol optical properties (aerosol optical depth, scattering and backscattering coefficients) have been conducted at two ground-based sites in Northern Greece, Ouranoupolis (40° 23' N, 23° 57' E, 170 m a.s.l.) and Thessaloniki (40° 38'

NOAA AVHRR derived aerosol optical depth over land [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2005
Aerosol optical depth was retrieved from a time series of NOAA‐16 AVHRR data from May 2001 through December 2002 for Central Europe (40.5°N–50.0°N, 0°E–17°E). In contrast to classical methods, no a priori knowledge of the surface reflectance is necessary, but instead the surface reflectance is estimated from a time series including the previous 44 days.

Nanoscale Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry for Quantifying Membrane Fouling: Fouling Layer Structure and Chemical Interaction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (Nano SIMS) is established as a powerful analytical tool to visualize and quantify the membrane fouling layers. ABSTRACT Membrane technology has garnered considerable attention for applications in wastewater treatment and resource recovery. Nevertheless, membrane fouling remains a major barrier, yet the lack of

Aerosol Data Sources and Their Roles within PARAGON [PDF]

, 2004
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 existing satellite, surface, and

Aerosol Optical Depth Retrievals over Thick Smoke Aerosols using GOES-17

, 2022
Abstract. Severe wildfires generate thick smoke plumes, which degrade particulate matter air quality near the surface. Satellite measurements provide spectacular views of these smoke aerosols and Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD), a columnar measure of aerosol concentration widely used in assessing air quality near the surface.
