A method for evaluating spatially-resolved NO<sub>x</sub> emissions using Kalman filter inversion, direct sensitivities, and space-based NO<sub>2</sub> observations

An inverse modeling method was developed and tested for identifying possible biases in emission inventories using satellite observations. The relationships between emission inputs and modeled ambient concentrations were estimated using sensitivities calculated with the decoupled direct method in thr...
