Description:Passive satellite observations play an important role in monitoring global aerosol properties and helping quantify aerosol radiative forcing in the climate system. The quality of aerosol retrievals from the satellite platform relies on well-calibrated radiance measurements from multiple spectral bands, and the availability of appropriate particle optical models. Inaccurate scattering phase function assumptions can introduce large retrieval errors. The high-spatial resolution, dual-view observations from the advanced baseline imagers onboard the two most recent geostationary operational environmental satellites (GOES), East and West, provide a unique opportunity to better constrain the aerosol phase function. Using dual
