Journal ArticleDOI

K. F. Boersma,K. F. Boersma,Henk Eskes,R. Dirksen,J. P. Veefkind,Piet Stammes,Vincent Huijnen,Quintus Kleipool,Maarten Sneep,J. Claas,J. Leitao,Andreas Richter,Yipin Zhou,D. Brunner +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an improved version of the DOMINO algorithm, DOMINO v2.0, was proposed for OMI based on better air mass factors (AMFs) and a correction for across-track stripes resulting from calibration errors in the OMI backscattered reflectances.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new stratospheric and tropospheric NO2 retrieval algorithm for nadir-viewing satellite instruments : applications to OMI

TL;DR: In this article, a new algorithm for the retrieval of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) vertical columns from nadir-viewing satellite instruments is described, and the sensitivity of the retrieval to assumptions made in the stratosphere-troposphere separation is discussed and shown to be small, in an absolute sense, for most regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Retrieving tropospheric nitrogen dioxide from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument: effects of aerosols, surface reflectance anisotropy, and vertical profile of nitrogen dioxide
Jintai Lin,Randall V. Martin,Randall V. Martin,K. F. Boersma,K. F. Boersma,Maarten Sneep,Piet Stammes,Robert Spurr,Pucai Wang,M. Van Roozendael,K. Clémer,Hitoshi Irie +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify the influence of aerosol optical effects on the results of the OMI data and propose an improved retrieval process to reduce the interference of aerosols on the retrieved cloud properties and increase the number of valid OMI pixels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Air quality over the Canadian oil sands: A first assessment using satellite observations
Chris A. McLinden,Vitali Fioletov,K. F. Boersma,K. F. Boersma,Nickolay A. Krotkov,Christopher E. Sioris,J. P. Veefkind,J. P. Veefkind,Kai Yang,Kai Yang +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first assessment of air quality over the Canadian oil sands using satellite remote sensing observations of two pollutants, nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and sulfur dioxide (SO2), is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved satellite retrievals of NO 2 and SO 2 over the Canadian oil sands and comparisons with surface measurements

TL;DR: In this article, the air mass factors used to convert line-of-sight "slant" columns to vertical columns were re-calculated for this region based on updated and higher resolution input information including absorber profiles from a regional-scale (15 km × 15 km resolution) air quality model, higher spatial and temporal resolution surface reflectivity, and an improved treatment of snow.
