  2. Observational capacity Relation between horizontal visibility and TSP or PM10: to be used in in simple regression models to estimate PM10 Izaña Observatory Relative humidity < 40% Climatolog y of visibility/estimated PM10 over Northern Africa from Observations + PM10 from NMBB/BSC-Dust reanalysis AEMET, Agencia Estatal de Meteorología
