Aerosol optical depth and fine-mode fraction retrieval over East Asia using multi-angular total and polarized remote sensing

A new aerosol retrieval algorithm using multi-angular total and polarized measurements is presented. The algorithm retrieves aerosol optical depth (AOD), fine-mode fraction (FMF) for studying the impact of aerosol on climate change. The retrieval algorithm is based on a lookup table (LUT) method, wh...
