SATELLITE REMOTE SENSING ATMOSPHERIC COMPOSITIONS, PRODUCTS VALIDATION AND DATA APPLICATION IN CHINA

摘要

This paper summarizes the achievements related to atmospheric compositions remote sensing from the bilateral cooperation under the framework of MOST-ESA Dragon Programme. The algorithms to retrieve Aerosol, ozone amount and profile, NO_2, SO_2, CH_4, CO_2, etc have been developed since 2004. Such algorithms are used to process FY-3 series (Chinese second generation polar orbit satellites) observation and ground based FTIR observation. The results are validated with in-sdtu measurements. Aerosol, total ozone amount shows the very good consistent with the ground measurements. Some satellite derived products, such as NO_2, SO_2 etc, have been utilized to analyse the environmental and climate change in China. These works demonstrate the satellite's capacity on environment monitoring and climate change research.
