Short summary
This paper highlights the first multi-year ground-based climatology of aerosol direct radiative effect (DRE) in the southeastern US Aerosol DRE at the co-located NOAA and NASA aerosol monitoring sites at Appalachian State University is approximately five times more negative during summer than winter. Aerosol DRE is most sensitive to aerosol optical depth (AOD). Use of MODIS-measured increases DRE uncertainty by a factor of 2.5 to 5.
