Improving Aerosol and Visibility Forecasting Capabilities Using Current and Future Generations of Satellite Observations

Abstract

The goal of this project is to improve the Navy's aerosol and visibility forecast capability through the development of advanced aerosol data assimilation schemes and construction of reliable data streams for operational aerosol data assimilation. Research findings from this 5-year project have been reported through more than 25 submitted/published authored and coauthored peer-reviewed journal papers and more than 30 conference presentations.
