TL;DR: In this paper, the TES profile retrieval algorithm used a "spectral-window" approach to minimize uncertainty from interfering species at the expense of reduced vertical resolution and sensitivity; however, the results of this approach are not consistent with actual uncertainties.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide details of the OCO-2 retrieval algorithm, versions 7 and 8, used to derive the column-averaged dry air mole fraction of atmospheric CO2,/sub> (XCO2).

TL;DR: In this article, a postprocessing approach using a simple algorithm to transform each retrieved profile to an appropriate, geographically varying coarse grid is presented, where the representation is chosen such that the averaging kernel is close to unity for regions of the atmosphere where the retrieval has most information.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a synthesis of comparisons performed between MIPAS CH4 and N2O profiles produced by the current ESA operational software (Instrument Processing Facility version 4.61 or IPF v4.61) and correlative measurements obtained from balloon and aircraft experiments as well as from satellite sensors or from ground-based instruments.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the long-term records of CO from the Measurements of Pollution in the Troposphere (MOPITT) and AOD from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument.
