Post-process correction improves the accuracy of satellite PM2.5 retrievals [PDF]
Estimates of PM2.5 levels are crucial for monitoring air quality and studying the epidemiological impact of air quality on the population. Currently, the most precise measurements of PM2.5 are obtained from ground stations, resulting in limited spatial ...

Revised methodology for CO2 and CH4 measurements at remote sites using a working standard-gas-saving system [PDF]
We have revised a calculation method of mole fractions and uncertainties for in situ CO2 and CH4 measurements with a working standard-gas-saving system. It uses on-site compressed air to track the baseline drift of sensors. The Japan–Russia Siberian Tall
