Stratospheric Aerosol Extinction Profile Retrieval from SCIAMACHY Limb Measurements
YANG Jing-Mei, ZONG Xue-Mei
Figure 2 SCIAMACHY aerosol extinction profile 39.6°N, 81.1°E at 0450 UTC 22 January 2004 compared to Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment SAGE II measurements 38.4°N, 95.2°E on the same day at 1044 UTC. The 750 nm SAGE II profile is calculated by interpolating from measurements at 525 nm and 1020 nm left panel. The right panel is the relative difference of the retrieved SCIAMACHY aerosol extinctions in comparison to SAGE II measurements. Relative difference = SCIAMACHY-SAHE II SAGE II × 100%.
