Short summary
An operational aerosol effective height (AEH) retrieval algorithm for the Geostationary Environment Monitoring Spectrometer (GEMS) was developed that solely uses the O2–O2 absorption band considering aerosol and surface properties. AEH retrievals are only performed when aerosol optical depth is larger than 0.3. The retrieval results show significant estimations by comparing the aerosol height from the Cloud–Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization and the Tropospheric Monitoring Instrument.
