| Zusammenfassung |
| This study presents two scientific and one operational retrieval algorithms
used to obtain vertical distributions of bromine monoxide (BrO) from
observations of the scattered solar light
performed by the SCIAMACHY
instrument in limb viewing geometry. The study begins with a discussion of the
theoretical basis of all algorithms followed by an investigation of
the retrieval sensitivity.
Simulations
with three different radiative transfer models allow us to analyze
influence of the forward model implementation upon the retrieval results.
By means of synthetic retrievals we analyze major sources of
uncertainties in the resulting BrO profiles such as different BrO cross
sections, their temperature dependence, and stratospheric aerosols. Finally,
the reliability of SCIAMACHY BrO profile retrievals is demonstrated
comparing results from different algorithms to each other and
to balloon-borne observations. |
