Measurements of tropospheric NO2 with an airborne multi-axis DOAS instrument
The AMAXDOAS instrument is an airborne multi-axis DOAS instrument covering the spectral range from 300 to 600 nm. During one flight of the SCIAVALUE campaign on 19 March 2003, the AMAXDOAS onboard the DLR Falcon detected tropospheric NO2 over Europe under both cloudy and cloud free conditions. By combining the measurements in nadir and zenith direction, and analysing the spectra in the UV and t...
متن کاملSciamachy Validation Using the Amaxdoas Instrument
The AMAXDOAS-instrument is a special designed Multi Axis DOAS instrument for airborne measurements. From the four different viewing angles the AMAXDOAS the traces gas columns of NO2, O3, BrO and OClO below and above the aircraft can be derived. Two spectrometers are used for the wavelength region between 300nm and 550nm. Here we present AMAXDOAS NO2 measurements from early spring 2003 in Europe...
متن کاملSciamachy Validation with Amaxdoas No2 and O3 Measurements
The AMAXDOAS instrument on board the DLRFalcon is an airborne multi-axis UV/visible spectrometer which was designed specifically for the validation of products from the SCIAMACHY instrument on ENVISAT. The AMAXDOAS instrument was flown during two large SCIAMACHY validation campaigns in September 2002 and February and March 2003. In this paper we will briefly introduce the campaign, then show th...
متن کاملNO2 Profile retrieval using airborne multi axis UV-visible skylight absorption measurements over central Europe
A recent development in ground-based remote sensing of atmospheric constituents by UV/visible absorption measurements of scattered light is the simultaneous use of several directions with small elevation angles in addition to the traditional zenith-sky pointing. The different light paths through the atmosphere enable the vertical distribution of some atmospheric absorbers such as NO2, BrO or O3...
متن کاملTropospheric NO2 columns: a comparison between model and retrieved data from GOME measurements
Tropospheric NO2 plays a variety of significant roles in atmospheric chemistry. In the troposphere it is one of the most significant precursors of photochemical ozone (O3) production and nitric acid (HNO3). In this study tropospheric NO2 columns were calculated by the fully coupled chemistry-climate model ECHAM4.L39(DLR)/CHEM. These have been compared with tropospheric NO2 columns, retrieved us...
