Research Question
How can satellite measurements help to improve our knowledge on the CO budget?

SCIAMACHY CO
• NIR (like TROPOMI)• Surface Sensitivity• Large Noise Errors:• Ice on detector• Weak Lines• Low NIR Albedo
Averaging reduces noise related errors!

Remarks on modelling:
Models needed for quantitative analysis Data-assimilation:
estimate “uncertain parameters” (emissions, initial composition)
satellite applications: must ingest large amounts of data (SCIAMACHY, TES, MOPITT)
All data sources have their own errors and biases: bias correction is required (e.g. ECMWF)

Available techniques
Ensemble Kalman Filter (e.g. CarbonTracker)
4D-VAR (e.g. talk Ilse Aben, ECMWF) Application to CO underway...

TRANSCOM meeting: 2-6 June 2008, Utrecht
Conclusions
Development of models and assimilation techniques important for quantitative use satellite data
SCIAMACHY CO: promising development Sensitivity down to Earth surface TROPOMI CO: higher resolution, more
cloudfree pixels, 5x better sensitivity
