Sounding the Troposphere from Space : a New Era for Atmospheric Chemistry /

Show other versions (1)

It is now possible to determine concentrations of trace constituents and pollutants in the lower atmosphere from space, a development which heralds a new era for tropospheric chemistry. The authors describe how to develop and validate methods for determining tropospheric trace constituents from sate...
