Interactive comment on “Satellite observation of atmospheric methane: intercomparison between AIRS and GOSAT TANSO-FTS retrievals” by M. Zou et al
Overview of review : This paper described the intercomparison results of methane profiles and its total column density between AIRS and GOSAT TANSO-FTS, the methane profiles were retrieved by thermal infrared spectral range of both instruments. The results showed the influence of Averaging Kernel through the comparison, it was found that the AK reduces the difference. The results also showed th...
متن کاملValidation of MIPAS ClONO2 measurements
Altitude profiles of ClONO2 retrieved with the IMK (Institut für Meteorologie und Klimaforschung) science-oriented data processor from MIPAS/Envisat (Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding on Envisat) mid-infrared limb emission measurements between July 2002 and March 2004 have been validated by comparison with balloon-borne (Mark IV, FIRS2, MIPASB), airborne (MIPAS-STR), gro...
متن کاملCO measurements from the ACE-FTS satellite instrument: data analysis and validation using ground-based, airborne and spaceborne observations
The Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment (ACE) mission was launched in August 2003 to sound the atmosphere by solar occultation. Carbon monoxide (CO), a good tracer of pollution plumes and atmospheric dynamics, is one of the key species provided by the primary instrument, the ACE-Fourier Transform Spectrometer (ACE-FTS). This in-5 strument performs measurements in both the CO 1-0 and 2-0 ro-vibrati...
متن کاملThe Impact of Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) Profiles on Short-term Weather Forecasts
The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS), together with the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU), represents one of the most advanced space-based atmospheric sounding systems. Aside from monitoring changes in Earth's climate, one of the objectives of AIRS is to provide sounding information with sufficient accuracy such that the assimilation of the new observations, especially in data sparse r...
متن کاملAnalysis of temporal and spatial correlation between precipitable water vapor retrievals from AIRS satellite sensor and 29 synoptic station measurements in Iran
Precipitable Water Vapor (PWV) is one of the most important quantities in meteorology and climate studies. PWV in Earth's atmosphere can be measured by Sun-photometer, the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS), and radiosonde from surface, atmosphere and space-based systems, respectively. In this paper, we use PWV measured by Sun-photometer located in Institute for Advanced Studies in Basic Scien...
