The A&WMA 2009 Critical Review Discussion -- Remote Sensing of Particulate Pollution from Space: Have We Reached the Promised Land?

Questions and Notes

use ~~~ to sign comments/questions.

  • Promised land is using AOD observations in place of surface-based monitors. Need system approach of observations and models Erinmr
  • Follow-up with NARSTO Ref #4 for satellite applications of pollution. Confusion about relevance of satellite observations for space/time
  • Need to ID limitations of space-based measurements identified in Hoff paper.
  • AOD -> PM needs physical models that account for particle characteristics, surface reflectivity without model PM and AOD are not equivalent
  • Temporal resolution is off - surface monitors are 24hr average and these can't be compared with the daily snapshot
  • need to better understand the Fresno/Satellite comparison - but I think the bottom line is that according to satellites winter would be low PM2.5 concentrations, however b/c of surface data we know that it is actually high surface concentrations. differences could arise from shallow mixing layer
  • Data access issues to get MODIS AOD, Aeronet and supersite data from Fresno
