dc.description.abstract | A Tropospheric Ozone Column (TrOC) dataset from the Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) observations was generated by combining the retrieved total ozone column from OMPS - Nadir Mapper (OMPS-NM) and limb profiles from OMPS - Limb Profiler (OMPS-LP) data. All datasets were generated at the University of Bremen, and the TrOC product was obtained by applying the Limb-Nadir Matching technique (LNM). The retrieval algorithm and a comprehensive analysis of the uncertainty budget are presented here. The OMPS-LNM-TrOC dataset (2012–2018) is analysed and validated by comparing with ozonesondes, tropospheric ozone residual (TOR) data from the combined Ozone Monitoring Instrument/Microwave Limb Sounder (OMI/MLS) observations, and the TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) Convective Cloud Differential technique (CCD) dataset. The OMPS-LNM TrOC is generally lower than the other datasets. The average bias with respect to ozonesondes is −1.7 DU with no significant latitudinal dependence identified. The mean difference with respect to OMI/MLS TOR and TROPOMI CCD is −3.4 and −1.8 DU, respectively. The seasonality and inter-annual variability are in good agreement with all comparison datasets. | en_US |
dc.description.sponsorship | This study was partly funded by the ESA Ozone CCI+ Phase 2 project, the University and State of Bremen. Large parts of the calculations reported here were performed at the HPC facilities of the Institute of Environmental Physics (IUP), University of Bremen, funded under the DFG/FUGG grants INST 144/379-1 and INST 144/493-1. The development of the aerosol data set required to retrieve the ozone data used in this study was funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) via the Research Unit VolImpact (grant no. FOR2820). The development of the stratospheric ozone profiles by Carlo Arosio was supported by his ESA Living Planet Fellowship SOLVE and the PRIME program of the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). Part of the data processing was done at the German HLRN (High-Performance Computer Center North). The GALAHAD Fortran Library was used for some retrievals. We acknowledge ozonesonde measurement providers and their funding agencies, the work of the PIs and the staff of the WOUDC and SHADOZ networks. | en_US |
