This study presents detailed analysis of spatiotemporal variations and trend of dust optical properties i.e., Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) and Angstrom component over Asian desert regions using thirteen years of data (i.e., 2001–2013) retrieved from Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET), Moderate Resolut...
