Characterization of Atmospheric Mineral Dust from Radiometric and Polarimetric Remote Sensing
نویسنده
چکیده
1) Using MODIS Terra Level 1B data containing calibrated and geolocated radiances, we investigated a regional signal of wind-blown mineral dust over the oceans. The goal of this study was to identify the thermal-IR radiative signature of atmospheric dust originating from the main world’s dust production regions and explore the implications to the dust detection over oceans with the techniques based on brightness temperature differences. For the 2000-2004 time period, MODIS data were examined for

Seasonal Study of Dust Deposition and Fine Particles (PM 2.5) in Iran Using MERRA-2 Data
The research results indicated that wet and dry dust deposition is a function of geographical characteristics. The seasonal wet and dry dust deposition and Fine Particles (PM 2.5) correlation in Iran with elevation, latitude and longitude results that the maximum correlation belongs to height, followed by latitude and longitude; meanwhile height and latitude are strongly and reversely correlate...

One of the powerful tools in dust storms analysis that have recently found extensive application is atmospheric-chemistry numerical modeling. Spatial and temporal distribution of Middle Eastern dust for a severe dust event during 4-8 July 2009 was analyzed by Weather Research and Forecasting with Chemistry (WRF/Chem) model simulations and remote sensing observations. The HYSPLIT model is applie...

The last few decades witnessed high urban growth rates in many countries. Urban growth can be mapped and measured by using remote sensing data and techniques along with several statistical measures. The purpose of this research is to detect the urban change that is used for urban planning. Change detection using remote sensing images can be classified into three methods: algebra-based, transfor...
متن کاملPolarimetric Remote Sensing in the Visible to Near Infrared
Polarization adds another dimension to the spatial intensity and spectral information typically acquired in remote sensing. Polarization imparted by surface reflections contains unique and discriminatory signatures which may augment spectral target-detection techniques. Benefits such as improving man-made object detection are often touted, as well as possible improvements to spectral algorithms...
