Monitoring and describing the spatiotemporal variability in dust aerosols is crucial for
understanding their multiple effects, related feedbacks, and impacts within the Earth system …

Quantifying the dust optical depth (DOD) and its uncertainty across spatiotemporal scales is
key to understanding and constraining the dust cycle and its interactions with the Earth …

This study aims to investigate global, regional and seasonal temporal dust changes as well
as the effect of dust particles on total aerosol loading using the ModIs Dust AeroSol (MIDAS) …

We derived two observation-based global monthly mean dust aerosol optical depth (DAOD)
climatological datasets from 2007 to 2019 with a 2∘(latitude)× 5∘(longitude) spatial …

By mass, dust is the largest contributor to global aerosol burden, yet long-term observational
records of dust, particularly over the ocean, are limited. Here, two nearly global …

New over-ocean aerosol models are developed by integrating the inversion data from the
Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) sun/sky radiometers with a database for the optical …

Aerosol is an important component of the Earth's atmosphere, affecting weather, climate,
and diverse elements of the biosphere. Satellite sounders are an essential tool for …

Currently, the Moderate‐resolution Imaging Spectroradiometers (MODIS) level II aerosol
product (MOD04/MYD04) is the best aerosol optical depth product suitable for near‐real …

We demonstrate how Multiangle Imaging Spectroradiometer (MISR) and Moderate
Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) space‐based aerosol products provide …

The twin Moderate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensors have been flying
on Terra since 2000 and Aqua since 2002, creating an extensive data set of global Earth …
