Ozone profiling from backscattered UV radiance measurements: a new procedure

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

This paper presents a data analysis technique that has been developed to support a stratospheric ozone measurement and profiling program. The data consist of solar backscattered UV radiation monitored by a spacecraft. The output consists of ozone mixing ratio profiles complete with error bars throughout the atmosphere. The technique is based upon principles of nonlinear optimal estimation. It provides a number of desirable features that have not been available together in any previously constructed technique for the problem. Iteration on both radiation measurements and total ozone measurements is among these features.
