SCIAMACHY total O3 validation with GOME WFDOAS All SCIAMACHY 5.01/5.04 from Jan - June 2003 compared to GOME WFDOAS V1.0 (to be submitted to ACP SCIAMACHY special issue II) • SCIAMACHY reprocessed data of 2003 • mixture of v5.01/5.04: • only differences in processing settings, • wrong season index in 5.01 for Jan-Mar 2003 • equivalent to GOME GDP 2.4: • no efficient temperature correction • AMF calculations: • -with ozone climatology based on 2 dim CTM • -no iterations to match tO3 a priori with meas. • limited treatment of atmos. profile shape effect • partly unsuitable spectral analysis when atmos- • phere becomes optically thick. • UV fit window 325-335 nm • GOME GDP 2.4 known for: • strong dependencies to sza, tO3, seasons, latitude • GOME WFDOAS • by Coldewey-Egbers et al. (ACPD, 2004) • Improved Raman correction ( to account for • O3-depend. contribution to Ring effect) • ozone temperature correction • Cloud cover and effective scene height from • oxygen A-band absorption (Koellemeijer et • al. 2001) incl. ghost vertical column correction • Effective UV albedo (surface reflect.) from 377nm • Spectral fitting window: 326.6-335nm

Summary: SCIAMACHY total ozone v5.01/5.04 Global validation with GOME WFDOAS V1 from Jan-June 2003 by fast binning method Slight underestimation of GOME WFDOAS (within +0.5 to –2%, RMS 2%), in accordance with ACVE-2 results Results improves when only SCIAMACHY data below 85° or even 75° SZA are used (Coupled) dependencies to seasons, latitudes and total ozone: increase of deviation from summer to winter as atmospheric variability increases detected in GOME GDP 2.4 (see Lambert et al., 2000) and attributed to: no temp. correction in O3 cross sections, AMF calculations, atmospheric profile shape effect, spectral analysis when atmosphere optically thick, not including ozone filling-in as part of Ring effect Update to ~ GDP 4.0 or to WFDOAS of SCIAMACHY total ozone will probably lead to agreements within 1% with groundbased or GOME WFDOAS for SCIAMACHY data <85°!
Summary: SCIAMACHY total NO2 v5.01/5.04 Global validation with GOME 3.0 from Jan-June 2003 by fast binning method Results show latitudinal dependence and in Winter-Spring in the Northern Hemisphere strong dependence to SZA! Results for SCIAMACHY 5.01/5.04 worse then for verification orbits v5.0 case 1 or case 4 (release 3/2004) and the results of ACVE-2!
