Limb–nadir matching using non-coincident NO2 observations; proof of concept and the OMI-minus-OSIRIS prototype product

A variant of the limb–nadir matching technique for deriving tropospheric NO2 columns is presented in which the stratospheric component of the NO2 slant column density (SCD) measured by the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) is removed using non-coincident profiles from the Optical Spectrograph and InfraRed Imaging System (OSIRIS).
