If not removed from the O 2 A-Band radiances, SIF will introduce biases in the dry air mole fraction and other A-band products SIF measurements also provide a constraint on the spatial distribution of CO 2 uptake by photosynthesis 7

11 Differences between OCO-2 and ECMWF Surface Pressures Monthly average differences between surface pressure estimates from OCO-2 version 7 and ECMWF Differences are binned into 2 by 2 bins and global bias of 2.5 hpa has been removed. Spatially dependent biases of +/- 3 hpa remain. 11
12 A-Band Calibration Challenges 12
13 Calibration Challenges: Cosmic Rays Cosmic rays a particular problem, especially on orbits that pass through the South Atlantic Anomaly (i.e. just about every orbit over South America) O2 band meas-mod > 6sigma The largest effects are seen in the O 2 A-band. An algorithm to screen the specific colors affected by cosmic rays has been implemented. OCO-2 A-band spectra from the South Atlantic Anomaly 13
14 Calibration Challenges: A-Band Channel Sensitivity Variations The sensitivity of the OCO-2 ABO2 channel has varied over time, while the WCO2 and SCO2 show much less variability The ABO2 sensitivity degradation has two components A fast degradation reversed by decontamination activities This component has been attributed to temporary degradation of the anti-reflection coating on the A-band focal plane array detector (FPA) due to the accumulation of a thin (< 100 nm) layer of ice on the FPA A monotonic slow degradation Lunar and Vicarious Calibration measurements indicate that this change is due to degradation of the solar diffuser rather than a throughput loss in the instrument 14
15 Sensitivity Variations Over Time 15
16 A Closer Look at the Fast Degradation The signal loss varies with footprint Signal loss varies with wavelength These variations are corrected in the V7 L1b product SIF observations show a zero level offset (or ILS change) that is correlated with the level of signal degradation [C. Frankenberg]. A correction for tis offset is currently under development for the next data product. 16
17 More Insight on the Slow Degradation The slow component of the degradation is mostly due to the calibrator, not the instrument. A reanalysis of the Lunar Calibration Data indicates that about 20% of the slow degradation is in the instrument optics 17
18 Evidence that the Slow Degradation is not a property of the Science optical path Lunar calibration data indicate that the slow degradation is a property of the solar calibrator, and not a the science optical path Upward Trend Unfortunately, the version 7 calibration correction did not discriminate between the slow and fast degradation. Comparisons with data acquired by MODIS over the Sahara indicate that the OCO-2 L1B calibration is introducing a progressively larger radiometric error 18

Interactions described by a relaxation matrix. Collision Induced Absorption: Accounts for inelastic collisions between molecules 20
21 Preliminary Tests of the Revised O 2 Absorption Coefficients: ECMWF Version 7 (current O 2 A-band absorption coefficients) Revised O2 A- Band Absorption Coefficients The revised O 2 A-band Absorption coefficients substantially reduce the global bias with respect to the ECMWF surface pressure prior. The global mean land bias has been reduced from -2.4 hpa to less than 0.4 hpa. The largest improvements are seen for glint observations, where the bias essentially vanishes in these tests. 21
22 Maps of bias in Psurf Version 7, no EOFs (The V7 baseline (with EOFs) shows similar latitudinal structure) We assume that ECMWF surface pressure is OK at these latitudes Issues around coastlines (S. America sulfate aerosol) 22
23 Maps of bias in Psurf with O 2 ABSCO update, no EOFs The amplitude of the pressure biases has been reduced, but the large scale features are still present. 23
24 Other Improvements Being Tested 24
25 Revised Solar Line List and Continuum Recent improvements in the solar line list explain many of the most persistent spectral residuals Empirical fits to the Solar Doppler data further reduce spectral residuals further Impact on X CO2 retrievals under investigation Should reduce solar contributions to EOF s Empirical corrections to solar continuum based on 11 Solar Doppler Calibration tests (black lines) account for much of the structure seen in v7 EOF#1 (colored lines). Footprint-to-footprint variations, due to calibration errors, should now be the major contribution. 25
26 Absolute Difference Changes in the ABO2 Cloud Screening The version 7 A-Band Pre-processor (ABP) used for cloud screening does not screen out cosmic rays. Cosmic ray artifacts reduce the yield of cloud free scenes over the South Atlantic anomaly The ABP has been modified to screen out cosmic rays. Preliminary tests indicate that this change will increase the yield of cloud free scenes over the South Atlantic anomaly by up to 100%. Fractional (%) Diff 26
