Abstract:

Based on literature data and numerical simulation results, and by processing the actual satellite data, we explored the possibility for retrieval of the aerosol optical depth (AOD) from IR measurements in the 3,5-4 and 8-13mm wavelength channels. By the example of data of EOS/MODIS satellite system, we tested this approach for Tomsk region.
