Abstract

April 8, 2012, the east region of Inner Mongolia out broke a strong sandstorm. Based on the analysis of the spectral characteristics of dust, cloud and surface, this paper propose a duststorm mask algorithm for the identification of dust coverage region by using three infrared channels of FY-3B. By utilizing diurnal variation of brightness temperature of dust aerosol, the bi-temporal thermal dust index was established to represent the intensity of duststorm. Through the analysis we found that BTDI has a high negative correlation with aerosol optical depth which can be used as an effective means to monitor the duststorm.
