Short summary
It is important to use weather data to estimate aerosol concentrations. Here, a weather index for aerosol concentration based on deep learning was developed, linking weather and short-term variations in aerosol concentrations over China. The index provides better performance than chemical transport model simulation and other data-based estimation approaches. It can be used as a robust tool for estimating daily variations in aerosol concentrations.
