  1. Measuring Tropospheric NO2 from SCIAMACHY During INTEX and Improving NOx Emission Inventories Randall Martin Aaron Van Donkelaar Yongtao Hu Armistead Russell Chris SiorisKelly Chance Tom Ryerson Bill Brune Jack Dibb Ron Cohen UC Berkeley

  2. Spectral Fit of NO2 Distinct NO2 Spectrum Solar Io Ozone Backscattered intensity IB NO2 Scattering by Earth surface and by atmosphere Albedo A O2-O2 Nonlinear least-squares fitting Also Weak H2O line Based on Martin et al., 2002

  3. Perform a Radiative Transfer Calculation to Account for Viewing Geometry and Scattering Cloud Radiance Fraction IB,c / (IB,o + IB,c) IB,c IB,o Io • FRESCO Clouds Fields [Koelemeijer et al., 2002] • Surface Reflectivity [Koelemeijer et al., 2003] • LIDORT Radiative Transfer Model [Spurr et al., 2002] • GEOS-CHEM NO2 & aerosol profiles q Rc Ro Pc dt Rs Based on Martin et al., 2002, 2003

  4. Data Provided for all Cloud Fractions HoweverUse of High Cloud Fraction Data Is Discouraged!Cloud Radiance Fraction <0.4 Recommended in Header FRESCO Cloud Algorithm Reality Surface

  5. Sample JPGs Provided For Each Day Missing Data: Cloudy Missing Cloud Fields Satellite Downlink Issues Typical Individual Measurement Uncertainty ±(1x1015 molec cm-2+40%) Spectral Fit Stratospheric NO2 Surface Reflectance Clouds Aerosols Assumed NO2 Profile

  6. Preliminary Comparison Between Average Assumed and Measured NO2 ProfilesNeed to Continue Analysis for Individual Flights West of -60 degrees lon, “land” East of -60 degrees lon, “ocean” GEOS-CHEM Cohen NO2 Errorbars Show 17th and 83rd percentiles

  7. Reasonable Agreement Between Coincident SCIAMACHY and In-Situ Cloud-Free MeasurementsDifficult Comparison over Source Regions Due to Ambiguous Column Below Aircraft and Spatial Heterogeneity 1:1 line r2 = 0.69 • Coincident measurements • Cloud-radiance fraction < 0.4 • In-situ measurements below 1 km • Assume constant mixing ratio below lowest measurement Cohen NO2 Ryerson NO2 Chris Sioris In situ errorbars show 17th & 83rd percentiles – not completed for DC8
