Retrieval of dust aerosols during night: improved assessment of long wave dust radiative forcing over Afro-Asian regions

Several investigators in the past have used the radiance depression (with respect to clear-sky infrared radiance), resulting from the presence of mineral dust aerosols in the atmosphere, as an index of dust aerosol load in the atmosphere during local noon. Here, we have used a modified approach...
