Comparison of PM<sub>2.5</sub> in Seoul, Korea Estimated from the Various Ground-Based and Satellite AOD
Based on multiple linear regression (MLR) models, we estimated the PM<sub>2.5</sub> at Seoul using a number of aerosol optical depth (AOD) values obtained from ground-based and satellite remote sensing observations. To construct the MLR model, we consider various parameters related to th...
