Spatial and Temporal Variations of Aerosol Optical Thickness over the China Seas from Himawari-8

Six years of hourly aerosol optical thickness (AOT) data retrieved from Himawari-8 were used to investigate the spatial and temporal variations, especially diurnal variations, of aerosols over the China Seas. First, the Himawari-8 AOT data were consistent with the AERONET measurements over most of the China Seas, except for some coastal regions. The spatial feature showed that AOT over high latitude seas was generally larger than over low latitude seas, and it is distributed in strips along the coastline and decreases gradually with increasing distance from the coastline. AOT undergoes diurnal variation as it decreases from 9:00 a.m. local time, reaching a minimum at noon, and then begins to increase in the afternoon. The percentage daily departure of AOT over the East China Seas generally ranged ±20%, increasing sharply in the afternoon; however, over the northern part of the South China Sea, daily departure reached a maximum of >40% at 4:00 p.m. The monthly variation in AOT showed a pronounced annual cycle. Seasonal variations of the spatial pattern showed that the largest AOT was usually observed in spring and varies in other seasons for different seas.
