Abstract
There has been an increasing trend in damaging by the Asian dust in spring. The continuous monitoring of the dust event with IR channels in geostationary satellite is very useful for forecasting and preventing the event. However, the monitoring with the IR channels revealed various problems associated with sensitivity. To eliminate these problems, we introduced a new concept of monitoring by constructing the background threshold values (BTV) and aerosol index (AI). This paper is about to test the reliability of this concept by applying to geostationary satellite, MTSAT-1R.
