TL;DR: ATMOS as discussed by the authors is a modified Michelson interferometer designed to be carried on board the Space Shuttle during orbital sunsets and sunrises, which obtains high resolution infrared solar spectra every 2 seconds.

TL;DR: In this article, the AIRS science objectives, the instrument design and operation, the in-flight operational scenario, and the calibration plan are described, and all aspects of the program are addressed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an update to linear error estimates for retrieval of carbon dioxide for the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2/3 (OCO-2 /3) due spectroscopic uncertainties.

TL;DR: The first flight on board the Space Shuttle 'Challenger' as part of the Spacelab 3 payload, the Atmospheric Trace Molecule Spectroscopy (ATMOS) instrument has been operated at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory's Table Mountain Observatory (TMO; 34.4 deg N, 117.7 deg W, 2.23 km altitude) in the San Gabriel Mountains of Southern California as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on simulations using NASAs Goddard Earth Observing System Model, version 5 (GEOS-5) which was used to evaluate the consistency of two different sets of observationally constrained land and ocean fluxes with atmospheric CO2 records.
