Towards the use of the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI)
The Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) is a UV/VISible spectrograph (270-500 nm). It employs two-dimensional arrays of CCD detectors for simultaneous registration of numerous spectra from ground pixels in the swath perpendicular to the flight direction. As a result, OMI provides (almost) daily global coverage in combination with small ground pixel sizes (nominally 13 x 24 km at nadir, minimum 13...
متن کاملGlyoxal retrieval from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument
We present an algorithm for the retrieval of glyoxal from backscattered solar radiation, and apply it to spectra measured by the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI). The algorithm is based on direct spectrum fitting, and adopts a two-step fitting routine to account for liquid water absorption. Previous studies have shown that glyoxal retrieval algorithms are highly sensitive to the position of th...
متن کاملTropospheric ozone column retrieval at northern mid-latitudes from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument by means of a neural network algorithm
Monitoring tropospheric ozone from space is of critical importance in order to gain more thorough knowledge on phenomena affecting air quality and the greenhouse effect. Deriving information on tropospheric ozone from UV/VIS nadir satellite spectrometers is difficult owing to the weak sensitivity of the measured radiance spectra to variations of ozone in the troposphere. Here we propose an alte...
متن کاملStudy of tropospheric ozone concentration trend of Kermanshah by meteorological parameter and ozone precursor and OMI images
Abstract: Clean air is a necessity for human well-being and health. Air pollution is a major threat to humans and other organisms and is considered as one of the environmental challenges. Today, with the increase in air pollution, the need to know more about the causes of its occurrence has been raised. The various consequences of air pollution have made air quality monitoring and control inev...
متن کاملTropospheric ozone column retrieval from OMI data by means of neural networks: a validation exercise with ozone soundings over Europe
The retrieval of the tropospheric ozone column from satellite data is very important for the characterization of tropospheric chemical and physical properties. However, the task of retrieving tropospheric ozone from space has to face with one fundamental difficulty: the contribution of the tropospheric ozone to the measured radiances is overwhelmed by a much stronger stratospheric signal, which...
