The effect of horizontal gradients and spatial measurement resolution on the retrieval of global vertical NO<sub>2</sub> distributions from SCIAMACHY measurements in limb only mode

Limb measurements provided by the Scanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartographY (SCIAMACHY) on the ENVISAT satellite allow retrieving stratospheric profiles of various trace gases on a global scale. Combining measurements of the same air volume from different viewing position...
