TROPOMI research ozone profile dataset in August 2022

This dataset contains ozone profile retrievals from TROPOMI (TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument) backscattered ultraviolet measurements  during the Asian Summer Monsoon Chemical and Climate Impacts Project (ACCLIP) conducted over the Western Pacific in summer 2022. The data is stored in individual files for each date, with all variables described in the attribute field. This dataset has been used in Bak et al. (submitted) for an integrated analysis of ozone and carbon monoxide alongside ACCLIP field datasets and other satellite products.

Details on Retrieval Methodology:

Inverse Method: Optimal estimation

Radiative Transfer Model: PCA-VLIDORT v2.8

A Priori Ozone: Tropopause-based ozone profile climatology

Fitting Window: 310-335 nm in the TROPOMI UV3 channel

Spatial Resolution: Cross-track pixels are binned to match the spatial resolution of the TROPOMI UV1 channel, with every 5 scan pixels coadded.

Spatial coveragne : 50E-180E, 10S-70S

Heritage: OMI PROFOZ ozone profile algorithm (Liu et al., 2010; Bak et al., 2024)
