The retrieval code developed for the Level 2 analysis of MIPAS data contains several optimisations aimed to provide, in near real time and in an automated way, atmospheric vertical profiles of temperature, pressure and volume mixing ratios of O3, H2O, CH4, HNO3, N2O and NO2, in the altitude range from 12 to 68 km. In this paper we present the performances of the Level 2 processor and the results of the tests carried-out for verification of the critical baselines adopted in the code. Some modifications that are in the list of near term implementations, and the possible future improvements are also discussed.

Abstract

The retrieval code developed for the Level 2 analysis of MIPAS data contains several optimisations aimed to provide, in near real time and in an automated way, atmospheric vertical profiles of temperature, pressure and volume mixing ratios of O3, H2O, CH4, HNO3, N2O and NO2, in the altitude range from 12 to 68 km. In this paper we present the performances of the Level 2 processor and the results of the tests carried-out for verification of the critical baselines adopted in the code. Some modifications that are in the list of near term implementations, and the possible future improvements are also discussed.
