Operational trace gas retrieval algorithm for the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer

Résumé

The Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) is a nadir‐viewing remote sensor due for launch on board the European Metop satellites (to be launched in 2005, 2010, and 2015). It is dedicated to the study of the troposphere and the lower stratosphere to support operational meteorology as well as atmospheric chemistry and climate studies. For this purpose, it will record high resolution atmospheric spectra in the thermal infrared, allowing the measurement of several infrared absorbing species. This paper describes the clear‐sky retrieval scheme developed in the framework of the preparation of the IASI mission for the operational, near real time, retrieval of O3, CH4, and CO concentrations. It includes the inversion module, based on a neural network approach, as well as an error analysis module. The studies undertaken on test simulations have shown that a performance of the order of 1.5%, 2%, and 5% for the retrieval of total columns of O3, CH4, and CO, respectively, can be achieved, and of the order of 28%, 15%, and 9% for the retrieval of partial columns of O3 between the surface and 6, 12, and 16 km high, respectively. The efficiency of the algorithm is demonstrated on the atmospheric measurements provided by the Interferometric Monitor for Greenhouse Gases (IMG)/ADEOS, allowing to obtain the first remote‐sensing simultaneous distributions of ozone and its two precursors, CO and CH4.
