Abstract
⺠An algorithm was proposed to retrieve aerosol/oceanic properties from satellite data. ⺠The algorithm, named SOM-NV, was applied off the west African coast. ⺠SOM-NV provides new product and accurate aerosol optical thickness (AOT). ⺠It was found that the Saharan dust was at maximum in summer and minimum in November. ⺠A 13 year climatology of aerosol type, AOT and chl-a concentration is available.
