Recent UN report shows that over 100,000 people die from air pollution. The general anthropoenic pollution from Sahara desert, fossil-fuel engines and bush-burning needs to be reduced to avoid natural accidents, regional climate change etc. A fifteen years dataset was obtained from the Multi-angle Imaging Spectro-Radiometer (MISR). The dataset gene...

... Bissau geographical structure includes low coastal plain, Guinean mangroves and forest. Its climate is hot, dry, dusty harmattan haze in the dry season, and warm and humid in the wet season. Its wet season is from June to early October, and the dry season is from December to April. Bussua is located on longitude and latitude of À 15.6° and 11.87° (Fig. 1) ...

... and tuning constant for fifteen years was determine using Eq. (1) over fifteen years data (Figs. 1 and 2). The statistical analysis of the AOD over the research area is shown in Table 1. The value atmospheric and tuning constant i.e. obtained from the comprehensive dataset is shown in Table 2 and the curve fitting technique is shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The secondary dataset i.e. aerosol loading was generated using the extended WASDM (shown in Eq. (1)) are pre- sented in Table 3. The percentage of the highest aerosol loading is shown in Table 4. It is calculated by finding the percentage increase between two consecutive years. Fig. 3. AOD for new model and MISR (Bussau, 2000(Bussau, ...
