The influence of dust optical properties on the colour of simulated MSG-SEVIRI Desert Dust infrared imagery

<p>Satellite imagery of atmospheric mineral dust is sensitive to the optical properties of the dust, governed by the mineral refractive indices, particle size, and particle shape. In infrared channels the imagery is also sensitive to the dust layer height and to the surface and atmospheric...
