The importance of separating thin cirrus and aerosols from satellite remote sensing to produce broader and more accurate fields for the determination of respective radiative forcings is highlighted. This has been accomplished through the development of a new methodology for retrieving both thin cirrus and aerosol optical depths simultaneously over oceans from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data. This method employs a procedure to quantify and remove the thin cirrus contribution to the observed reflectance through a correlation of visible and 1.38-m reflectances so that the aerosol signal can be extracted. Aerosol optical depths are then retrieved through comparisons with the simulated reflectances created a priori...
