摘要
Aerosols are one of the major causes in health-related problems and affect the Earth radiation balance. They absorb and scatter solar radiation and change the lifetime of clouds. The lifetime of aerosols varies and their localized sources produce highly variable aerosol concentrations in space and time. To monitor such variations, satellite remote sensing provides the spatial and temporal resolution. An aerosol optical thickness (AOT) map can be produced by using dual view algorithm implemented in a LOTOS model. The model is used to calculate the contributions of sulfates and nitrate aerosols to the total AOT.
