CO2 Satellite data:
Current results and future plans
Joanne Skidmore, Sander Houweling, Wouter Hartmann, Ilse Aben
Space Research Organization Netherlands
Status of Sciamachy CO2 retrieval
Retrieval at 1.6 m (like OCO but less spectral resolution) Slow start due to a number of complications:- Ice layer growth on channels 7
& 8 (not 6!)- Problems with data distribution- Problems with data processors
Recently, good progress First results & interpretation . . .
Note: Sciamachy is not a CO2 dedicated instrument !
Next steps
Retrieval issues (e.g. aerosol profiles – MISR data, sensitivity to T) Correlation with other tracers (CH4, O2)
Recurring months of data (reproducibility seems high!)
Collaboration with TransCom colleagues ??
