Implications of MODIS bow-tie distortion on aerosol optical depth retrievals, and techniques for mitigation
The scan geometry of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensors, combined with the Earth's curvature, results in a pixel shape distortion known as the "bow-tie effect". Specifically, sensor pixels near the edge of the swath are elongated along-track and across-t...
