Tropospheric HCHO data from SCIAMACHY
As part of our RETRO activities, a preliminary time series of SCIAMACHY tropospheric HCHO columns has been created which can be downloaded as gridded monthly averages.
These files are encrypted, for the password please contact Folkard Wittrock.
For a description of the method used to derive the HCHO columns, please see:
- F. Wittrock, The retrieval of oxygenated volatile organic compounds by remote sensing techniques, PhD Thesis, Univ. of Bremen, April 2006
The file format is plain ASCII with a header giving details on the retrieval settings used.
More information can be found on our SCIAMACHY HCHO page.
If you have any questions or requests, please contact Folkard Wittrock.
