  • Aerosol Optical Depth Best Estimate Data in Production for NSA

    Time series show the combined aerosol optical depths (AODs) generated for the North Slope of Alaska central facility at Utqiaġvik (top panel) and the Atqasuk site (bottom panel). Gaps in the time series are likely associated with seasonal data availability and quality, as well as required upgrades and replacements of ground-based instruments measuring AOD. Images…

  • Aerosol Optical Depth Best Estimate Production Data Available for 2 ARM Sites

    These time series of the combined aerosol optical depths (AODs) from 2016 to 2020 at ARM’s Eastern North Atlantic atmospheric observatory do not show seasonal patterns. Gaps in the time series are associated with data quality issues or instrument repair or replacement.

  • Evaluate Aerosol Optical Depth Best Estimate Data Product

    These time series of combined aerosol optical depths (AODs) from the AODBE 5-channel product exhibit seasonal patterns with large and small AOD values during summer and winter, respectively, at ARM’s Southern Great Plains atmospheric observatory. The time series have gaps, which are likely associated with data quality issues and required upgrades and replacements of ground-based…
