Inversion Problems and Data Assimilation

MEASUREMENTS from June 2002 to March 2004

These measurements were performed in the nominal measurement scenario that had originally been planned.

The characteristics distinguishing the June 2002 - March 2004 measurements from the subsequent measurements are listed below:

Type	Parameters
Spectral resolution	0.025 cm^-1 (defined as spacing between independent measured spectral points)
Vertical sampling grid # of spectra / scan	3 km step 5 km step 8 km step 6-42 km 42-52 km 52-68 km 17
Horizontal sampling grid	550 km
