Ozone Monitoring Instrument on EOS-Aura • OMI is the Dutch-Finnish contribution to NASA EOS-Aura • KNMI is the PI institute for OMI. • OMI was launched in July 2004, more than 6 years data already! • Mission extended to at least 2013. • Radiometrically the instrument is extremely stable. UV degradation ~1%. • OMI data of recent years have reduced coverage. 3 WMO UNEP Ozone Research Managers Meeting, 2-4 May 2011

Jaross, SSAI OMI daily coverage for the data after January 2009. Earlier years have daily global coverage. 4 WMO UNEP Ozone Research Managers Meeting, 2-4 May 2011
OMI DOAS Total Ozone Product • Total ozone retrieval using the DOAS method. • Produced as offline, near-real-time and very-fast delivery product (Europe only, co-operation with FMI) • Current algorithm version 1.1.1. • In 2011 a reprocessing of OMDOAO3 is planned that includes the following improvements: • Switch from Bass-Paur to Brion-Daumont-Malicet ozone cross sections. • Spectral calibration on every ground pixel. • Improved treatment of sea-ice pixels. • Consistent retrieval for the whole 2004-2011 dataset. 5 WMO UNEP Ozone Research Managers Meeting, 2-4 May 2011
OMI OMO3PR Ozone Profile Product • Based on optimal estimation algorithm. • High horizontal resolution of ~60x50 km2. Vertical resolution 6-7 km. • Dataset Oct. 2004 - present. • Extensive validation using MLS on the same platform as OMI. OMO3PR data for one orbit of data. This product contains 3D ozone profile information, as well as the total column ozone. 6 WMO UNEP Ozone Research Managers Meeting, 2-4 May 2011

CONTRIBUTION TO GMES TROPOMI • UV-VIS-NIR-SWIR nadir view grating spectrometer. • Spectral range: 270-500, 675-775, 2305-2385 nm • Spectral Resolution: 0.25-1.1 nm • Spatial Resolution: 7x7km2 • Global daily coverage at 13:30 local solar time. • Total columnO3, NO2, CO, SO2,CH4, CH2O,H2O,BrO • Tropospheric columnO3, NO2 • O3 profile • Aerosol absorbing index, type, optical depth sentinel-5 precursor GMES ATMOSPHERE MISSION IN POLAR ORBIT • The ESA Sentinel-5 Precursor (S-5P) is a pre-operational mission focussing on global observations of the atmospheric composition for air quality and climate. • The TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) is the payload of the S-5P mission and is jointly developed by The Netherlands and ESA. • The planned launch date for S-5P is 2014 with a 7 year design lifetime.
TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument • TROPOMI is developed by The Netherlands in co-operation with ESA. • KNMI is the PI institute • Compared to OMI: • 6x higher spatial resolution7x7 km2 vs. 13x24 km2 • 1-5x higher signal to noise • better cloud informationoxygen A band (675-775 nm) added • CO and CH4 observationsSWIR band (2305-2385 nm) added TROPOMI optical design.

Multi Sensor Reanalysis (MSR) of total ozone • Long term data record based on a large number of satellite sensors and ground based Brewer-Dobson stations. • Data assimilation is applied to provide a global consistent dataset. • MSR dataset is available at http://www.temis.nl/macc/index.php?link=o3_msr_intro.html .
