Aerosol climatology: on the discrimination of aerosol types over four AERONET sites (2007, neutral): “…South Africa (Eck et al., 2001b, 2003), urban/industrial aerosols mainly over densely populated areas of North America (Eck et al., 1999), Europe (Dubovik et al., 2002) and10 Southeastern Asia (Kim et al., 2004; Latha and Badarinath, 2005) and desert-dust particles originated from the arid areas…”
Comparison of size and morphological measurements of coarse mode dust particles from Africa (2003, background): “Difficulty begins to arise in computing the dust’s scattering phase function [Dubovik et al., 2002b; Kalashnikova and Sokolik, 2002], and by implication single-scattering albedo.”
Light Absorption by Carbonaceous Particles: An Investigative Review (2006, result): “While comparison with other measurements is difficult because the single-scattering albedo is derived for the entire atmospheric layer, the results have been shown to be consistent with likely spectrally dependent properties of LAC and dust ( Dubovik et al. 2002 ).”
Instrument calibration and aerosol optical depth validation of the China Aerosol Remote Sensing Network (2009, methodology): “This network has been used to measure direct and diffuse solar radiation and derive aerosol optical properties for the purpose of aerosol radiative forcing studies [ Dubovik et al., 2002; Eck et al., 2005; Holben et al., 2001; O 0 Neill et al., 2000; Smirnov et al., 2002].”
Characterization of iron oxides in mineral dust aerosols: Implications for light absorption (2006, background): “0 as high as 0.95–0.99 in midvisible concluding that dust has low absorption [Kaufman et al., 2001; Dubovik et al., 2002].”
Observations of the eruption of the Sarychev volcano and simulations using the HadGEM2 climate model. (2010, methodology): “While we acknowledge that our analysis of AERONET could be enhanced by analysis of the spectral radiances and subsequent inversions to determine the best aerosol size distribution [e.g., Dubovik et al., 2002 ], such research is beyond the scope of the current paper.”
Suomi‐NPP VIIRS aerosol algorithms and data products (2013, methodology): “…ratios used in the retrieval over land were derived from a matchup database composed of AERONET AOT data from the level 1.5 inversion product [Dubovik et al., 2002] from 99 globally distributed AERONET sites, 51 by 51 moderate resolution patches of VIIRS M-band reflectances, and ancillary…”
Multiangle Imaging Spectroradiometer (MISR) global aerosol optical depth validation based on 2 years of coincident Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) observations (2005, methodology): “Contributions from satellite aerosol products [e.g., Remer et al., 2005; Torres et al., 2002], surface measurements [e.g., Dubovik et al., 2002 ], and aerosol transport models [e.g., Tegen et al., 1997; Chin et al., 2002] are helping create a global picture of aerosol distributions for these applic”
