The insufficient number of ground-based stations for measuring Particulate Matter less than 10µm (PM10), especially in the developing countries hinders PM10 monitoring at a regional scale. The present study aims to develop empirical models for PM10 estimates from space over Malaysia using Aerosol Op...
