Retrieval of spectral aerosol optical thickness over land using ocean color sensors MERIS and SeaWiFS

For the determination of aerosol optical thickness (AOT) Bremen AErosol Retrieval (BAER) has been developed. Method and main features on the aerosol retrieval are described together with validation and results. The retrieval separates the spectral aerosol reflectance from surface and Rayleigh path r...
