Short summary
This study develops two merged global land aerosol single-scattering albedo (SSA) datasets by combining AERONET ground observations and two satellite datasets using an ensemble Kalman filter data synergy method. The merged datasets exhibit significantly improved accuracy compared to the original satellite data. These results can provide more reliable estimates of aerosol scattering and absorption properties, essential for improving climate modeling and assessing aerosol climate effects.
