Australian Fires (LV) [Prev]
Richard Pope paper looking at enhancements in different species obvious in CO,correlation with CH4 and Methanol across Pacific.
Now have over a full year of MetOp B data.

SO2 (IT) [Prev] [Next]
Raikoke eruption retrieving SO2 column amounts too low. Improved by retrieving v3 then v1 sequentially. Might be due to ash, as shown by different surface temperatures retrieved in the two bands. Might need joint retrieval of SO2 and ash.

OCS (AD) [Prev]
OCS using Scaled Linear Retrieval results. MPhys report from Edwin Phua shows plausible OCS distributions over the oceans, low OCS in tropical forests, but large diurnal signatures over land/desert.
