Overview: Estimating and reporting uncertainties in remotely sensed atmospheric composition and temperature

<p>Remote sensing of atmospheric state variables typically relies on the inverse solution of the radiative transfer equation. An adequately characterized retrieval provides information on the uncertainties of the estimated state variables as well as on how any constraint or a priori assumption...
