Markers of economic activity in satellite aerosol optical depth data

This study investigated the impact of COVID-19 lockdowns on satellite aerosol optical depth (AOD), to explore the hypothesis that if changes in economic activity are seen in emissions of NO _2 , an aerosol precursor, then AOD should change commensurably. We developed a technique to filter AOD data t...
