Title:
MUSICA IASI / RemoTeC TROPOMI fused methane data set (version 1.0)

Description:
(Abstract) This version 1.0 MUSICA IASI / RemoTeC TROPOMI fused methane data set contains total (ground – top of atmosphere, variable <xch4>), tropospheric (ground – about 6 km a.s.l., variable <troxch4>), and UTLS (upper tropospheric/lower stratospheric, about 6 – 20 km a.s.l., variable <utsxch4>) column-averaged dry-air mole fractions of methane (CH4). The data are obtained by combining the level 2 CH4 profiles and XCH4 total columns (generated from the IASI TIR spectra and the TROPOMI NIR/SWIR spectra, respectively). The level 2 CH4 profiles were generated by the MUSICA processor (version 3.3.0) and the level 2 XCH4 total columns by the RemoTeC processor (operational processing algorithm version 2.2.0). The combination is realized by means of a Kalman filter that uses the MUSICA IASI data as the background and the TROPOMI data as the new observation. Details of the combination method, the IASI and TROPOMI collocation requirements, and the data quality are described in Schneider et al. (2022, https://doi.org/10.5194/amt-15-4339-2022). The data cover an example period for northern hemispheric winter and summer conditions (01 January – 30 January 2020 and 01 July – 30 July 2020, respectively).
