Abstract

It is necessary to examine whether the satellite monitoring results are consistent with the ground-based observations if satellite data are used in studying dust weather frequency (DF) or dust aerosol optical thickness. In this paper, the dust weather frequency data from the ground-based observations and the values of aerosol optical thickness index (AI) from TOMS for the time period of 1979-2002 were analyzed. The results are as follows: ① The areas with high AI value were basically consistent with those with high DF value in north China, these areas were located in the extremely arid basins and plateaus in northwest China; the areas with low value were generally distributed in humid east China except the Northeast Plain and North China Plain where the AI value was relatively high, especially in winter; ② Change of monthly AI and DF values was highly consistent, the highest AI and DF values occurred in spring, the second highest AI values occurred in December and next January; ③ The correlation coefficient between AI and DF was generally the highest in summer but lowest in winter; ④ The TOMS AI data could be used to ideally reflect the spatiotemporal patterns of DF in arid northwest China but poorly in north China and northeast China.

Key words： TOMS; aerosol; optical depth; dust weather; spatiotemporal distribution; north China
