Description

The TROPESS CrIS-SNPP L2 Peroxyacetyl Nitrate for Reanalysis Stream, Summary Product contains the vertical distribution of the retrieved atmospheric state of peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN), and formal uncertainties measured by the CrIS instruments on the Suomi-NPP satellite. The reanalysis stream summary product is global for the time period from 2015-12-01 to 2023-05-18. The NASA TRopospheric Ozone and Precursors from Earth System Sounding (TROPESS) project, uses an optimal estimation algorithm, known as the MUlti-SpEctra, MUlti-SpEcies, Multi-SEnsors (MUSES).

The data files are written in the netCDF version 4 file format, and each file contains one day of data. The data have a spatial resolution of 14 km (CrIS nadir FOV), and are reported at 16 vertical levels from the surface to 0.1 hPa. The principal investigator for the TROPESS project is Kevin W. Bowman.
