OMI Cloud Data
OMI produces cloud fraction and cloud pressure that are used in OMI
trace-gas retrievals and by other Aura sensors. Two methods are used for the
cloud pressure retrieval, O2-O2 absorption &
Rotational Raman Scattering methods. O2-O2 absorption
method is based on spectral fitting of O2-O2
absorption band at 477 nm using DOAS technique. Rotational Raman Scattering
(RRS) method is based on the least square fitting of the Ring spectrum
(filling-in of Fraunhofer lines in the range 392 to 398 nm due to rotational
Raman scattering).
