We proposed a new atmospheric correction approach for HJ-1 CCD datasets

in which the aerosol optical depth（AOD）is acquired based on the relationships between surface reflectance of the blue band and red band over dense dark vegetation（DDV）regions.The atmospheric correction look-up tables（LUTs） were introduced to provide atmospheric correction coefficients under different aerosol loadings and sun-view geometry.The comparison of the results with intraday MODIS（Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer） surface reflectance out-puts（MOD09） indicated the proposed atmospheric correction method has preferable accuracy.We did uncertainty analyses from the aspects of AOD retrieval accuracy

radiometric calibration accuracy

altitude impact and atmospheric water vapor con-tent impact.
