Satellite Limb Sounding of the Earths Atmosphere II Posters

Session ID#: 26612
Session Description:
A number of Earth-orbiting satellite instruments are making atmospheric measurements using limb-sounding techniques. These include occultation, scattering, emission, and satellite-to-satellite attenuation. Solar occultation like that used by SAGE II has been a very successful approach to producing high vertical resolution species profiles, but with limited global coverage. Limb scattering, like that used by OMPS and SAGE III-ISS, expands the global coverage producing species’ profiles on the sun side of the orbit. Limb emission instruments, like MLS and SABER, are capable of measuring atmospheric gases on a more global scale day and night. This session serves as a forum to demonstrate various applications of limb sounders, used alone or in concert with other techniques, to improve our understanding of current science issues, including trend studies, photochemistry applications, dynamics and transport, and aerosol and cloud characterizations. Papers are solicited on current and new limb sounding techniques, science results, and multiple instrument intercomparisons.
