This document analyzes dust weather categorization in Mongolia using satellite data from 2000-2013. Ground-based meteorological data from 113 stations is compared to satellite-retrieved aerosol optical depth to categorize dust haze, blowing dust, and dust storms. Dust phenomenon types are categorized based on the correlation between aerosol optical depth and horizontal visibility. The study finds a good exponential relationship between aerosol optical depth and visibility in April, allowing dust weather to be categorized from satellite data with spatial frequencies consistent with ground reports.
