Retrieval of NO2 Column Amounts from Ground-Based Hyperspectral Imaging Sensor Measurements [PDF]
, 2019 Total column amounts of NO2 (TCN) were estimated from ground-based hyperspectral imaging sensor (HIS) measurements in a polluted urban area (Seoul, Korea) by applying the radiance ratio fitting method with five wavelength pairs from 400 to 460 nm.

A physics-based approach to oversample multi-satellite, multispecies observations to a common grid [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2018 Satellite remote sensing of the Earth's atmospheric composition usually samples irregularly in space and time, and many applications require spatially and temporally averaging the satellite observations (level 2) to a regular grid (level 3).
