This document summarizes information about aerosols including their sources, sizes, health effects, measurement techniques, and a methodology for satellite aerosol retrieval. It discusses using MODIS data at 500m resolution to estimate aerosol optical thickness over Hong Kong and compares the results to AERONET ground measurements. Key steps in the methodology include calculating top-of-atmosphere reflectance, accounting for Rayleigh scattering, surface reflectance, gas transmissions, and atmospheric effects to derive aerosol reflectance and optical thickness.

The key factor of the aerosol retrieval is to estimate surface reflectance
that attempts to differentiate the aerosol signal from surface.
