Improvements to the OMI near-UV aerosol algorithm using A-train CALIOP and AIRS observations

The height of desert dust and carbonaceous aerosols layers and, to a lesser extent, the difficulty in determining the predominant size mode of these absorbing aerosol types, are sources of uncertainty in the retrieval of aerosol properties from near-UV satellite observations. The availability of ind...
