The Fourier Transform

The infrared emission spectrum of carbon monosulfide was observed as a sequence of vibration–rotation bands in the X1Σ+ state, with strong heads of the Δν = 2 sequence degraded to the red. Eight bands of 12C32S were identified, and bands corresponding to the isotope 12C34S were also observed. The most prominent band head, that of the (2–0) band, is at 2585 cm−1, with the other heads spaced approximately 26 cm−1 to smaller wavenumbers. Our data, taken with the Fourier transform spectrometer at the National Solar Observatory (Kitt Peak) include the first reported laboratory observations of the band heads and as many as 200 lines in each band. These observations allowed the calculation of vibrational and rotational constants to higher order than previously reported.

<p>The GLORIA-B (Gimballed Limb Observer for Radiance Imaging of the Atmosphere - Balloon) instrument is an adaptation of the very successful GLORIA-AB imaging Fourier transform spectrometer (iFTS) flown on the research aircrafts HALO and M55 Geophysica. The high spectral resolution in the LWIR (Long Wave Infrared) allows for the retrieval of temperature and of a broad range of atmospheric trace gases, with the goal to retrieve O<sub>3</sub>, H<sub>2</sub>O, HNO<sub>3</sub>, C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub>, C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>2</sub>, HCOOH, CCl<sub>4</sub>, PAN, ClONO<sub>2</sub>, CFC-11, CFC-12, SF<sub>6</sub>, OCS, NH<sub>3</sub>, HCN, BrONO<sub>2</sub>, HO<sub>2</sub>NO<sub>2</sub>, N<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> and NO<sub>2</sub>. The radiometric sensitivity of the Balloon instrument is further increased in comparison with the GLORIA-AB instrument by having two detector channels on the same focal plane array, while keeping the same concept of a cooled optical system. This system improvement was achieved with minimal adaptation of the existing optical system.</p><p>The high spatial and temporal resolution of the instrument is ensured by the imaging capability of the Fourier transform spectrometer while stabilizing the line-of-sight in elevation with the instrument and in azimuth with the balloon gondola. In a single measurement lasting 13 seconds, the atmosphere can be sounded from mid-troposphere up to flight altitude, typically 30 km, with a vertical resolution always better than 1 km for most retrieved species; a spatial resolution up to 0.3 km can be achieved in favourable conditions. Temperature retrieval precision between 0.1 and 0.2 K is expected. A spectral sampling up to 0.0625 cm<sup>-1</sup> can be achieved.</p><p>The first flight of GLORIA-B shall take place during the late-summer polar jet turn-around at Kiruna/ESRANGE. This flight is organised in the frame of the HEMERA project and was scheduled for summer 2020, but was ultimately postponed to summer 2021. Beyond qualification of the first balloon-borne iFTS, the scientific goals of the flight are, among others, the quantification of the stratospheric bromine budget and its diurnal evolution by measuring vertical profiles of BrONO<sub>2 </sub>in combination with BrO observations by the DOAS instrument of University Heidelberg on the same platform.</p>

The (1–0), (2–1), and (3–2) infrared vibration–rotation bands of the X2Π ground state of sulfur monohydride were observed in emission from a furnace. Multiplet splitting produces two subbands, each of which exhibits lambda splitting. The band heads were observed for the first time, 285 lines were measured, and a calculation of lambda-doubling parameters was made. The spectrum was recorded using the Fourier transform spectrometer at the National Solar Observatory (Kitt Peak).

Abstract. We present the first near global upper tropospheric distribution of formic acid (HCOOH) observed from space using solar occultation measurements from the Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) on board the Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment (ACE) satellite. Using a new set of spectroscopic line parameters recently published for formic acid by Vander Auwera et al. (2007) and Perrin and Vander Auwera (2007), we have retrieved the concentrations of HCOOH between 5 km and the tropopause for ACE-FTS observations from February 2004 to September 2007. We observe a significant seasonal dependence for the HCOOH concentrations related to vegetation growth and biomass burning. We estimate an emission ratio of 0.0051±0.0015 for HCOOH relative to CO for tropical South American fires using a selected set of data for September 2004. Results from the balloon-borne MkIV Fourier transform spectrometer are also presented and compared with the ACE measurements.

This paper provides an introduction to Fourier transform spectroscopy. The basic concepts of the Fourier transform technique are reviewed. These include the characteristics and generation of interferograms and the generation of spectra by the Fourier transformation of interferograms. The multiplex and throughput advantages and the data handling disadvantages are also discussed. The optical, electronic, and data-handling instrumentation and techniques necessary for a Fourier transform spectrometer system are, in general, quite different from those of a conventional prism or grating spectrometer. The requirements of these areas are outlined and recent developments are reviewed. The Fourier transform technique has been successfully applied to a number of spectral measurements from the visible through to the far infrared. Some of the more recent applications are discussed.

The Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) at the Beijing Satellite Meteorological Ground Station observed XCO2 (the dry carbon dioxide column) from 2 March 2016 to 4 December 2018. The validation results of ground-based XCO2, as well as GOSAT, OCO-2, and TanSat XCO2, show that the best temporal matching setting for ground-based XCO2 and satellite XCO2 is ±1 h, and the best spatial matching setting for GOSAT is 0.5° × 0.5°. Consistent with OCO-2, the best spatial matching setting of TanSat is 5° × 5° or 6° × 6°. Among GOSAT, OCO-2, and TanSat, the satellite observation validation characteristics near 5° × 5° from the ground-based station are obviously different from other spatial matching grids, which may be due to the different observation characteristics of satellites near 5° × 5°. To study the influence of local CO2 sources on the characteristics of satellite observation validation, we classified the daily XCO2 observation sequence into concentrated, dispersive, increasing, and decreasing types, respectively, and then validated the satellite observations. The results showed that the concentrated and decreasing sub-datasets have better validation performance. Our results suggest that it is best to use concentrated and decreasing sub-datasets when using the Beijing Satellite Meteorological Ground Station XCO2 for satellite validation. The temporal matching setting should be ±1 h, and the spatial matching setting should consider the satellites observation characteristics of 5° × 5° distance from the ground-based station.
