Zusammenfassung |
Quantifying the impact of rotational-Raman scattering (RRS) on
the O2 A- and B-bands is important as these bands can be used
for cloud and aerosol characterization for trace-gas retrievals
including CO2 and CH4. In this paper, we simulate the
spectral effects of RRS for various viewing geometries and
instruments with different spectral resolutions. We also examine
how aerosols affect the amount of RRS filling-in. We show that
the filling-in effects of RRS are relatively small, but not
negligible, in these O2 absorption bands, particularly for
high-spectral-resolution instruments. For comparison, we also
compare and contrast the spectral signatures of RRS with those
of terrestrial chlorophyll fluorescence. |
