Technical note: A simple method for retrieval of dust aerosol optical depth with polarized reflectance over oceans
<p>Our previous study shows that the angle of linear polarization (AOLP) of solar radiation that is scattered from clouds at near-backscatter angles can be used to detect super-thin cirrus clouds over oceans. Such clouds are too thin to be sensed using any current passive satellite instruments...
