A more detailed study and identification of aerosol types can help to better understand the sources and effects of aerosols. In the present study, a number of optical properties of aerosols have been investigated seasonal for discrimination of aerosol types during 2010-2014 over Zanjan, Iran. Also using AERosol RObotic NETwork (AERONET) data, aerosol was classified by multiple clustering techniques. Both fine and coarse modes particles were seen in seasonal averaged of Aerosol Volume Size Distribution (AVSD). Single Scattering Albedo (SSA) variations indicate the presence of scattering aerosol

Abstract. We present a global aerosol assimilation system based on an Ensemble Kalman filter, which we believe leads to a significant improvement in aerosol fields. The ensemble allows realistic, spatially and temporally variable model covariances (unlike other assimilation schemes). As the analyzed variables are mixing ratios (prognostic variables of the aerosol transport model), there is no need for the extra assumptions required by previous assimilation schemes analyzing aerosol optical thickness (AOT). We describe the implementation of this assimilation system and in particular the constru

Additional comparisons to Angström exponent (AE), coarse mode AOD and dust surface concentrations are included to extend the assessment of model performance and to identify common biases present in models.

Atmospheric correction (AC) for coastal waters is an important issue in ocean color remote sensing. AC performance is fundamental in retrieving reliable water-leaving radiances and then bio-optical parameters. Unlike polar-orbiting satellites, geostationary ocean color sensors allow high-frequency (15–60 min) monitoring of ocean color over the same area. The first geostationary ocean color sensor, i.e., the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI), was launched in 2010.
