Space‐Based Observation of Decadal Variations of Ammonium Sulfate Aerosols Over Northern China

Abstract The concentrations of ammonium sulfate, an important component of secondary inorganic aerosols, have dropped substantially in the North China Plain (NCP) over the past decade. However, current understanding of its variations is limited by the small number of ground‐based...

UAV-Satellite Integration Reveals Continuous Methane Emission Variability from Chinese Coal Mine Ventilation Shafts

Abstract Satellite quantification of coal mine methane lacks validation for continuously operating ventilation systems with high temporal variability. We integrate 75 unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) flights (30 successful, 13 days) with 6.5 years of satellite observations at a Chin...

A Machine Learning Framework for Retrieving Atmospheric Composition and the Associated Averaging Kernels From a Geostationary Hyperspectral Infrared Sounder

Abstract Geostationary hyperspectral infrared sounders provide hourly observations of the atmospheric composition. However, the conventional optimal estimation method (OEM)‐based retrieval algorithm requires computationally expensive radiative transfer calculations and inverse mo...
