High-Resolution Satellite Mapping of Fine Particulates Based on Geographically Weighted Regression.

Satellite-retrieved aerosol optical depth (AOD) has been increasingly utilized for the mapping of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) concentrations. An accurate estimation and mapping of PM2.5 concentrations depends on the high-resolution AOD data and a robust mathematical model that takes into account the spatial nonstationary relationship between PM2.5 and AOD. Take the core portion of the Beijing-...
