Abstract
- In this paper we describe the methodology of an offline retrieval of CO 2 from AIRS data and show comparisons of these retrievals with all available NOAA ESRL/GMD aircraft data during 2005. In general, we find that when compared to the aircraft the AIRS CO 2 estimates agree to approximately ±0.5% in middle-tropospheric CO 2 column abundances between ±65 degrees latitude.
