Retrieval of stratospheric ozone profiles from MIPAS/ENVISAT limb emission spectra: a sensitivity study
We report on the dependence of ozone volume mixing ratio profiles, retrieved from limb emission infrared spectra of the Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS), on different retrieval setups such as the treatment of the background continuum, cloud filtering, spectral regions used for analysis and a series of further more technical parameter choices. The purpose of this...
متن کاملGlobal Observations of Ozone Isotopic Ratios from Mipas Limb Emission Spectra
The observed variations in the isotope ratios often reveal information about the relative strengths of different sources and sinks of the trace gas in question, and about the transport processes which influence its distribution. With the magnitude of the heavy ozone isotope effect known, the isotopes can serve as markers for atmospheric transport and chemical reactions. The enrichment observed ...
متن کامل4D-Var Assimilation of MIPAS chemical observations: ozone and nitrogen dioxide analyses
This paper discusses the global analyses of stratospheric ozone (O 3) and nitrogen dioxide (NO 2) obtained by the Belgian Assimilation System for Chemical Observations from Envisat (BASCOE). Based on a chemistry transport model (CTM) and the 4-dimensional variational (4D-Var) method, BASCOE has assimilated chemical obser-Our analyses are evaluated against assimilated MIPAS data and independent ...
متن کاملStratospheric sulfur and its implications for radiative forcing simulated by the chemistry climate model EMAC
Multiyear simulations with the atmospheric chemistry general circulation model EMAC with a microphysical modal aerosol module at high vertical resolution demonstrate that the sulfur gases COS and SO2, the latter from low-latitude and midlatitude volcanic eruptions, predominantly control the formation of stratospheric aerosol. Marine dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and other SO2 sources, including strong...
متن کاملMIPAS measurements of upper tropospheric C 2 H 6 and O 3 during the southern hemispheric biomass burning season in 2003
Under cloud free conditions, the Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS) provides measurements of spectrally resolved limb radiances down to the upper troposphere. These are used to infer global distributions of mixing ratios of atmospheric constituents in the upper troposphere and the stratosphere. From 21 October to 12 November 2003, MIPAS observed enhanced amounts o...
