CO2 retrievals from GOSAT glint spectra
Abstract
Algorithms for retrieving column-averaged CO2 mixing ratio (XCO2) are being developed in preparation for the launch of the OCO-2 satellite. We describe features of the retrieval algorithm for observations made over ocean glint, and present current results for XCO2 using spectra from the Greenhouse Gases Observing Satellite (GOSAT) instrument currently in-flight.
