Dust plume properties in the VIS channel.

VIS file name	Detection	Local time	Longitude	Latitude	Max	Color
	time		range	range	radiance
	(h)	(h)	(°)	(°)	(W m⁻² sr⁻¹ μm⁻¹)	%/100 nm
V1_00395824539	[7:42, 7:48]	[20.20, 21.19]	[275, 285]	[−10, 0]	0.10	13.0 ± 2.6

Note. Column 1: observation file name. Column 2: start and stop detection time for the dust plume. Column 3: local time range for the source of the dust plume on the surface (see Sect. 5). Column 4: longitude range for the source of the dust plume on the surface (see Sect. 5). Column 5: latitude range for the source of the dust plume on the surface (see Sect. 5). Column 6: radiance at 0.55 μm at the emission maximum of the dust plume. Column 7: color at the radiance maximum of the dust plume (see Sect. 3.2).
