The Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) provides a unique opportunity of monitoring tropospheric pollutants on the regional scale. Thermal InfraRed (TIR) observations (from about 620-2300 cm -1 ) have two advantages over other spectral domains: firstly, day/night observations are possible; secondly, numerous molecular species can be observed simultaneously. However, the sensitivity of TIR observations may be a critical point for the geostationary orbit geometry. In this study, we present a feasibility study for TIR pollution observations in GEO conditions. The capabilities of measuring the tropospheric abundance of ozone (O 3 ) and carbon monoxide (CO) are investigated. Limitations of the sensor sensitivity are also discussed. |
