A simple model for the cloud adjacency effect and the apparent bluing of aerosols near clouds (2008, background): “When the pixels are relatively large (e.g., TOMS 40 km, OMI 15 km), only the first type (unresolved variability), cloud contamination is considered [e.g., Torres et al., 2002; Sinyuk et al., 2003].”
Impact of radiatively interactive dust aerosols in the NASA GEOS‐5 climate model: Sensitivity to dust particle shape and refractive index (2014, background): “This result is at odds with the conclusion of remote sensing studies, which infer a less shortwave absorbing dust aerosol, more like what is used in the OBS-based simulations [e.g., Kaufman et al., 2001;Moulin et al., 2001; Colarco et al., 2002; Sinyuk et al., 2003].”
