英文摘要 | This study validates aerosol properties retrieved using a Satellite Ocean Aerosol Retrieval (SOAR) algorithm applied to Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) measurements, from Version 1 of the VIIRS Deep Blue data set. SOAR is the over-water complement to the over-land Deep Blue algorithm and has two processing paths: globally, 95% of pixels are processed with the full retrieval algorithm, while the 5% of pixels in shallow or turbid (mostly coastal) waters are processed with a backup algorithm. Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) data are used to validate and compare the midvisible (550nm) aerosol optical depth (AOD), angstrom ngstrom exponent (AE), and fine mode fraction of AOD at 550nm (FMF). AOD uncertainty is shown to be approximately (0.03 + 10%) for the full and (0.03 + 15%) for the backup algorithms, with a small positive median bias around 0.02. When AOD is below about 0.2, the AE and FMF have small negative offsets from AERONET around -0.15 and -0.04, respectively. For higher AOD, AE is less offset and the magnitudes of differences versus AERONET are about 0.2 and 0.14, respectively. Aerosol-type classifications provided by SOAR are found to be reasonable, matching optical-based classifications from AERONET over 80% of the time. Spatial and temporal patterns of AOD and AE are also compared with those of other contemporary over-water satellite aerosol data sets; dependent on region, the satellite data sets show varying levels of consistency, with SOAR broadly in-family, and the largest discrepancies in regions with persistent heavy cloud cover. Plain Language Summary Aerosols are small particles in the atmosphere like desert dust, volcanic ash, smoke, industrial haze, and sea spray. Understanding them is important for applications such as hazard avoidance, air quality and human health, and climate studies. Satellite instruments provide an important tool to study aerosol loading over the world. However, individual satellites do not last forever and newer satellites often have improved capabilities compared to older ones. This paper evaluates an extension of an algorithm, originally designed to monitor aerosols from an older satellite instrument, to a new satellite instrument called Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite. The evaluation is performed by comparing to ground truth data which are part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's global Aerosol Robotic Network, as well as to other satellite-based aerosol data sets from different spaceborne instruments. |
