GOME-2 FM202-2: PM2Slit function analysis • Linearly mapped error analysis for FM202-2 • Dominant error – wavelength registration? • Note larger Echelle angular range used cf. 2004 • Gaussian broadening more significant on 0.5mm (expected) • New vs. old • 0.5mm +/-10% • 1.0mm +/-20% • Codes in plots: FM202-{ver}_{slit_width}_{order}[g] • {ver} : 1= 2004, 2 = 2012 • {slit_width} : _1_0 = 1mm, _0_5 = 0.5mm • {order} : (not present)=main order, _1=overlapping • “g”= SFS Gaussian broadened
SFS shape Order 1mm / 0.5mm New / old 1mm New 1mm/old 0.5mm
SFS shape New (GB)/Old 0.5mm New (no GB)/Old 0.5 Old 1mm Order Old 1mm /0.5mm
Conclusions • Large change in FPA1,3,4 slit functions • Some change in FPA2 • Wavelength registration for FM202-2 still dominant error source (FM202-1 more consistent) • SFS shape significant (particularly 0.5mm slit) • Impact on O3 profile? Wls error dominated? • Need to improve wavelength information: • Remove extreme Echelle angel data? • Retrieve?
