Atmospheric Sounding

The Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS) instrument which operated on the Envisat satellite from 2002-2012 is a Fourier transform spectrometer for the measurement of high-resolution gaseous emission spectra at the Earth's limb. It operates in the near- to mid-infrared, where many of the main atmospheric trace gases have important emission features. The initial operational products were profiles of Temperature, H2O, O3, CH4, N2O, HNO3, and NO2, and this list was recently extended to include N2O5, ClONO2, CFC-11 and CFC-12. Here we present preliminary results of retrievals of the third set of species under consideration for inclusion in the operational processor: HCN, CF4, HCFC-22, COF2 and CCl4.

The spectrum of CH4 obtained in CH4 plus N2 mixtures at a temperature of 77 K has been recorded with a spectral resolution of 0.14 cm−1 in the region 3800 to 9100 cm−1. The experiments were performed with long paths (66 or 88 m) in a cooled absorption cell using a Fourier-transform spectrometer. Data are presented here at low and medium resolution, and examples of some spectral regions are also shown at high resolution. The complete results are available from the author in an Appendix. Comparisons are made with previous model calculations of CH4 absorption, and with the observed spectrum of Neptune's satellite, Triton. The results should be useful for the interpretation of the spectra of Triton, Titan, and Pluto. They will also be of value for testing model calculations of low-temperature CH4 absorption, which, thus verified, can be used with greater confidence to analyze observations of Jupiter, Saturn Uranus, and Neptune.
