  21. Long-Range Transport of Smoke and Dust Aerosols OMI Absorption Aerosol Optical Depth July 2007 Aerosol Index Time-Longitude Map & Transport of African Dust West to East Dust Smoke The global map of July 2007 OMI Absorption Optical Depth (on the left) shows North African dust traveling westward over the Atlantic Ocean and reaching Mexico and North America. It also shows smoke plumes from the biomass burning from central Africa. The Aerosol Index map on the right shows westward transport of North African dust plumes with time. The dust plume which lifted above ground on June 6 at 20 deg E reached Gulf of Mexico in two weeks. Aerosol index is a very good indicator of absorbing aerosols such as smoke and dust.

  22. OMI can see UV absorbing Aerosols (dust & smoke) over clouds Asian dust plumes usually start in March and mainly build up over Taklamakan and Gobi deserts and move eastwards, travel over the Pacific and reach the west coast of America. On the right, the map of OMI Aerosol Index of April 7, 2005 shows dust plume over East China, Korea and Japan. Dust Plumes Over Cloud On the left is shown Plumes of smoke from a Canadian Boreal Forest Fire for August 16, 2005 These Aerosol index maps have been overlaid on OMI retrieved Cloud Cover to show that OMI can detect aerosols even over clouds.
