Total ozone service – Service Delivery Product : Assimilated ozone column from TOMS-N7, SBUV(NOAA-9), TOMS-EP, GOME, SCIAMACHY and OMI. Including overpass files of about 100 ground stations Coverage : Global Archive : Archive of images and data sets,1978-present Validation: • Data from 233 ground stations available • Only 91 stations selected with a useful dataset • Dobson, Brewer(3,4) and Filter-instruments • The OmF and OmA of the assimilated data analysed with a newly developed code (AssimPlot)
Status of archived data TOMS Nimbus 7: 1978-1993 level 4 TOMS EarthProbe: 1996-2002 level 4 TOMS Meteor 3 : not yet available in the NASA DAAC TOMS ADEOS : data will not be made available SBUV NOAA9: 1992-1998 level 4 GOME : 1995-2003 level 2 and 4 GOME-NRT (EGOIs) : 1998-today level 2 SCIAMACHY : 2002-today level 2 and 4 OMI : 2004-today level 2 and 4 GOME-2 : 2007 level 4
Conclusions • 30 years of ozone data available • Unique dataset with many interested users • Validation and level2 corrections are ongoing. • Regular reprocessing needed (reprocessing OMI, FRESCO+, degradation corrections, etc.)
Outlook • Consistent dataset of 30 year of ozone • Tropospheric ozone from GOME and OMI
