Ground-based assessment of Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) data for dust transport over the northeastern Mediterranean
[1] Multiyear daily surface aerosol aluminum (Al) concentration and sunphotometer measurements at Erdemli (Turkey) sampling station were used to assess the performance of Absorbing Aerosol Index (AAI) and Aerosol Optical Thickness (AOT) retrieved from the daily Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) over the northeastern Mediterranean. A total of 98 moderate-to-high intensity dust events with ...
متن کاملComparative analyses of the ultraviolet-B flux over the continental United State based on the NASA total ozone mapping spectrometer data and USDA ground-based measurements
In recent years, the risk of health effects caused by the increased exposure to Ultraviolet-B (UVB) due to stratospheric ozone depletion has received wide attention. In the US, there are two ways to accurately measure the UVB. They include: 1) the National Aeronautical and Space Administration (NASA) Nimbus-7 total ozone mapping spectrometer (TOMS), and 2) the United State Department of Agricul...
متن کاملOptical properties of mineral dust outbreaks over the northeastern Mediterranean
[1] Ground-based aerosol optical measurements were conducted within the framework of the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) program at the IMS-METU site at Erdemli (36 330N, 34 150E) along the Turkish coast of the northeastern Mediterranean from January 2000 to June 2001. The measurements were used to identify and define predominant regional aerosol optical properties, with an emphasis on minera...
متن کاملResponse of the climatic temperature to dust forcing, inferred from total ozone mapping ž / spectrometer TOMS aerosol index and the NASA assimilation model
Ž Recently, Alpert et al. Alpert, P., Shay-El, Y., Kaufman, Y.J., Tanre, D., DaSilva, A., Schubert, S., Joseph, J.H., 1998. Quantification of dust-forced heating of the lower troposphere, Ž . Ž . . Nature 395 6700 , 367–370, 24 September . suggested an indirect measure of the tropospheric temperature response to dust aerosols by using model updates — roughly speaking model errors Ž . — of the N...
متن کاملComparing OMI-TOMS and OMI-DOAS total ozone column data
[1] The Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) project team uses two total ozone retrieval algorithms in order to maintain the long-term record established with Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) data as well as to improve the ozone column estimate using the hyperspectral capability of OMI. The purpose of this study is to assess where the algorithms produce comparable results and where the diff...
