Due to the complexity and heterogeneity mechanism of aerosol scattering and absorption, there is no systematic operational net surface shortwave radiation (NSSR) retrieval algorithm for considering the forces of different aerosols. This study is to estimate NSSR under dust aerosol conditions. A parameterized model is proposed to quantify the net shortwave radiative forcing (ASRF) of aerosol. Considering the particularity of dust aerosol on shortwave radiation and its mechanisms, aerosol optical properties and atmospheric water vapor content (WVC) are used to quantify the ASRF, and the previous Tang's parameterization model for estimating NSSR is refined to estimate NSSR under dust aerosol conditions. On this basis, a more accurate radiative transfer model MODTRAN 5 is primitively utilized to simulate and fit the complex relationship. Moreover, the coefficients for parameterization are recalculated by an improved algorithm under diverse types of aerosols. Finally, the NSSR measurements in the study areas and the NSSR products from the MODIS satellites are utilized to verify the retrieved NSSR. The root-mean-square error (RMSE) is below 11 W/m<sup>2</sup> under various land cover types and the research findings can significantly increase the estimation accuracy of NSSR around 40 W/m<sup>2</sup> under dust aerosol conditions.
