Structural uncertainty in air mass factor calculation for NO<sub>2</sub> and HCHO satellite retrievals

Structural uncertainty in air mass factor calculation for NO<sub>2</sub> and HCHO satellite retrievals

Air mass factor (AMF) calculation is the largest source of uncertainty in NO<sub>2</sub> and HCHO satellite retrievals in situations with enhanced trace gas concentrations in the lower troposphere. Structural uncertainty arises when different retrieval methodologies are applied within th...
