Cloud drop condensation nuclei (CCN) and ice nuclei (IN) particles determine to a large
extent cloud microstructure and, consequently, cloud albedo and the dynamic response of …

We use the Total Ozone Map** Spectrometer (TOMS) sensor on the Nimbus 7 satellite to
map the global distribution of major atmospheric dust sources with the goal of identifying …

Abstract Recently, the newest Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)
Collection 6.1 (C6. 1) aerosol optical depth (AOD) products were available with various …

Black carbon aerosol plays a unique and important role in Earth's climate system. Black
carbon is a type of carbonaceous material with a unique combination of physical properties …

Abstract The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aboard both NASA's
Terra and Aqua satellites is making near-global daily observations of the earth in a wide …

Anthropogenic aerosols are intricately linked to the climate system and to the hydrologic
cycle. The net effect of aerosols is to cool the climate system by reflecting sunlight …

Abstract The Georgia Institute of Technology–Goddard Global Ozone Chemistry Aerosol
Radiation and Transport (GOCART) model is used to simulate the aerosol optical thickness τ …

The Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem (PACE) mission will carry into space the
Ocean Color Instrument (OCI), a spectrometer measuring at 5 nm spectral resolution in the …

We present an overview of the theoretical and algorithmic aspects of the Ozone Monitoring
Instrument (OMI) aerosol and surface UV algorithms. Aerosol properties are derived from …

The aerosol-climate modelling system ECHAM5-HAM is introduced. It is based on a flexible
microphysical approach and, as the number of externally imposed parameters is minimised …
