Retrieval of volcanic SO2 from HIRS/2 using optimal estimation

We present an optimal-estimation (OE) retrieval scheme for stratospheric sulfur dioxide from the HighResolution Infrared Radiation Sounder 2 (HIRS/2) instruments on the NOAA and MetOp platforms, an infrared radiometer that has been operational since 1979. This algorithm is an improvement upon a prev...
