Alpine AOD MSG

AOD is estimated from MSG SEVIRI with a one-channel multi-temporal approach with special focus on the European Alps and a temporal resolution of 15 minutes. Surface reflectance is estimated from a time series prior to the observations. Additionally, the area where aerosol optical depth can be derived is not limited to certain land cover types. Only bright surface targets (e.g. snow) are excluded in the retrieval.
