Current approach being tested is as follows
- Use IAA model to calculate Vibrational Temperature profile for a number
of initial guess T and CO profiles, for a variety of solar zenith angles
- Then, in the retrieval,
take difference between retrieved (kinetic) temperature and the
IG atmosphere used for the precomputed VT
- Apply a first order perturbation d(VT)/d(KT) to correct precomputed VT
for current conditions
- Use this as an a priori estimate of VT in joint retrieval of CO and VT,
or simply as a specified VT.
