Abstract:Observations of carbon monoxide (CO) from the Measurements Of Pollution In The Troposphere (MOPITT) instrument onboard the Terra spacecraft were expected to have an accuracy of 10 % prior to launch in 1999. Here we evaluate MOPITT version 7 joint TIR-NIR (V7J) accuracy and precision, and suggest ways to further improve the accuracy of the obser-1 https://doi.vations. We take five steps involving filtering or bias corrections to reduce scatter and bias in the data relative to other MOPITT soundings, and ground … Show more
