Description

Cloud-screened and quality-filtered direct sun retrievals of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) vertical column densities (VCDs) derived from MkIV Brewer #067 measurements in Rome (wavelengths 425.02, 431.40, 437.35, 442.83, 448.08, and 453.20 nm) and processed using the Brewer Nitrogen Dioxide Algoritm BNALG2. Calibration is carried out with Bootstrap Estimation techniques. The values represent averages of 5 samples.

In the latest version, days with obviously erroneous data (NO2 VCD > 99.9% percentile) have been removed.

A detailed description of the method has been accepted as a research article by the ESSD journal (H. Diémoz et al., Advanced NO2 retrieval technique for the Brewer spectrophotometer applied to the 20-year record in Rome, Italy, Earth Syst. Sci. Data, 2021).
