Description:

Figure 1 presents the coarse mode non-absorbing dust columnar mass concentration derived from POLDER/PARASOL by the GRASP/Component algorithm. A new aerosol component module for Generalized Retrieval of Aerosol and Surface Properties (GRASP) algorithm was recently developed by Li et al. (2019, 2020) for inferring aerosol component fraction. The aerosol component retrievals can be requested directly from Huizheng Che (chehz@cma.gov.cn) and Oleg Dubovik (oleg.dubovik@univ-lille.fr). The products (Level 0, Level 1 and Level 2) of GRASP/Component algorithm will be public soon. More products and the details of GRASP algorithm (Dubovik et al., 2011) can be found at GRASP-OPEN (https://www.grasp-open.com).
