摘要
Based on the optimal estimation method, a satellite XCO2 retrieval algorithm was constructed by combining LBLRTM with VLIDORT. One-year GOSAT/TANSO observations over four TCCON stations were tested by our algorithm, and retrieval results were compared with GOSAT L2 B products and ground-based FTS measurements. Meanwhile, the influence of CO2 line mixing effect on retrieval was estimated, and the research showed that neglecting CO2 line mixing effect could result in approximately 0.25% XCO2 underestimation. The accuracy of XCO2 retrievals was similar to GOSAT L2 B products at cloud-free footprints with aerosol optical depth less than 0.3, and 1% accuracy of XCO2 retrievals can be reached based on the validation result with TCCON measurements.
