Real time assessment of haze and PM10 aided by MODIS aerosol optical thickness over Klang Valley, Malaysia
Scarcely distribution, installation and maintenance costs for ground monitoring stations are issues in air pollution monitoring. Moderate resolution imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board of Terra and Aqua satellites is able to retrieve aerosol optical thickness (AOT) in troposphere and can be u...

Scarcely distribution, installation and maintenance costs for ground monitoring stations are issues in air pollution monitoring. Moderate resolution imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board of Terra and Aqua satellites is able to retrieve aerosol optical thickness (AOT) in troposphere and can be utilized in particulate matter pollution monitoring. In this study, daily AOT data retrieved from MODIS in 2004 to 2006, using Non-linear correlation coefficient (NLCC) were compared with the amount of particulate matter PM10 measured at eight ground air quality monitoring stations in Klang Valley, Malaysia. Effects of haze on air quality that indicated MODIS AOT before, during and after the severe haze were also studied.
