<jats:p>Interannual and intra‐annual variations in aerosol optical depths (AOD) and fine mode fraction (FMF) analyzed from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) during 2001–2005 over four urban areas in India, Chennai, Mumbai, Kolkata and New Delhi, are investigated. MODIS derived AODs and FMFs are found to compare well with in situ Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) Sun photometer results over Kanpur.
