  Retrieved aerosol optical thickness (AOT) based on data obtained by the Sea viewing Wide Field Sensor (SeaWiFS) is here combined with surface wind speed,obtained at the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWFs),over the North Pacific for September 2001.In this study a cloud screening approach is introduced in an attempt to exclude pixels partly or fully covered by clouds.The relatively broad swath width for which the nadir looking SeaWiFS instrument scanned over the North Pacific means that the AOT can be estimated according to relatively large range of wind speeds for each of the scenes analyzed.
