Aerosol Particles
Linked via "satellite sensors"
Remote Sensing
Ground-based lidars and satellite sensors utilize backscattered radiation to infer aerosol optical depth ($\text{AOD}$), a measure of the integrated extinction of light through the atmospheric column. The relationship between $\text{AOD}$ and surface mass concentration ($\text{PM}_{2.5}$) relies on the assumed vertical distribution of the aerosol layer, which, in turn, must be corrected for localized deviations in the [Ea… -
Atmospheric Aerosols
Linked via "satellite sensors"
Measurement and Modeling
Aerosol properties are typically quantified using measurements of Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD)) from satellite sensors (e.g., MODIS, MISR) or ground-based sun photometers (AERONET). Modeling complex aerosol mixtures requires sophisticated treatment of particle aging, coagulation, and condensation/evaporation kinetics. A key challenge remains the accurate parameterization of the **[particle effective density ($\rho_{\text{eff}}$)](/entries…
