A Climatological Satellite Assessment of Absorbing Carbonaceous Aerosols on a Global Scale

A Climatological Satellite Assessment of Absorbing Carbonaceous Aerosols on a Global Scale

A global climatology of absorbing carbonaceous aerosols (ACA) for the period 2005−2015 is obtained by using satellite MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer)-Aqua and OMI (Ozone Monitoring Instrument)-Aura aerosol optical properties and by applying an algorithm. The algorithm...
