CALIPSO Observations of Sand and Dust Storms and Comparisons of Source Types near Kuwait City
The Lidar on the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) mission, makes robust measurements of dust and has generated a record that is significant both seasonally and interannually. We exploit this record to determine the properties of dust emanating from differe...
