Abstract

Global aerosol concentration and size parameters derived from MODIS sensors onboard the Terra and Aqua satellites are continuously being evaluated with ground-based measurements and used for various aerosol studies. These parameters have enabled a two-year assessment of aerosol loading and seasonal trends over several important regions on land and ocean, based on 5
