Short summary

This study evaluates dust particles, their identification, amount and variability in the atmosphere using Metop-satellite observations from 2007 to 2019. Results show reliable detection of dust and consistent spatial and seasonal patterns. Dust-dominated observations have moderate to good accuracy against ground-based measurements, though biases and outliers occur. Sampling density varies across regions, but satellites still provide valuable contributions to global dust monitoring.
