Development and Assessment of the Sand Dust Prediction Model by Utilizing Microwave-Based Satellite Soil Moisture and Reanalysis Datasets in East Asian Desert Areas

For several decades, satellite-based microwave sensors have provided valuable soil moisture monitoring in various surface conditions. We have first developed a modeled aerosol optical depth (AOD) dataset by utilizing Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS), Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (...
