Zusammenfassung |
In this paper, we discuss the development of the inversion algorithm for the
GOMOS (Global Ozone Monitoring by Occultation of Star) instrument on board
the Envisat satellite. The proposed algorithm takes accurately into account
the wavelength-dependent modeling errors, which are mainly due to the
incomplete scintillation correction in the stratosphere. The special
attention is paid to numerical efficiency of the algorithm. The developed
method is tested on a large data set and its advantages are demonstrated.
Its main advantage is a proper characterization of the uncertainties of the
retrieved profiles of atmospheric constituents, which is of high importance
for data assimilation, trend analyses and validation. |
