DOI: 10.5194/amt-12-3777-2019
Abstract: Abstract. We introduce a method that accounts for errors caused by the slit function in an optimal-estimation-based spectral fitting process to improve ozone profile retrievals from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) ultraviolet measurements (270–330 nm). Previously,… read more here.
