Top-down constraints on global N<sub>2</sub>O emissions at optimal resolution: application of a new dimension reduction technique

Top-down constraints on global N<sub>2</sub>O emissions at optimal resolution: application of a new dimension reduction technique

We present top-down constraints on global monthly N<sub>2</sub>O emissions for 2011 from a multi-inversion approach and an ensemble of surface observations. The inversions employ the GEOS-Chem adjoint and an array of aggregation strategies to test how well current observations can con...
