dc.description.abstractThis study aims to provide the first analysis of aerosol optical properties, radiative forcing, and source identification over Birkat al Mouz, Oman, using Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) data from December 2022 to November 2024.
dc.description.sponsorshipThe authors would like to express their sincere gratitude to the University of Nizwa for supporting this research. Special thanks are extended to the AERONET (AErosol RObotic NETwork) for providing invaluable data, which was critical to the success of this study. The authors also acknowledge the READY website (http://www.arl.noaa.gov/ready.php) and the NOAA Air Resources Laboratory (ARL) for providing the HYSPLIT transport and dispersion model. Additionally, the authors thank the Oman Meteorological Authority for supplying essential meteorological data used in this study.
