Short summary
Mineral dust aerosols are tiny particles uplifted by winds from deserts, which may be transported for long distances. They are climate forcers and affect human health and socio-economic sectors, making near-real-time and long-term monitoring essential. Here, we use satellite observations to retrieve global 3D distributions of dust aerosols. We present an updated and improved algorithm and its long-term consistent data since late 2007, with high potential for climate analyses and alert systems.
