The GHGSat-D imaging spectrometer (2020, background): “…building on the pioneering work of the global mapping missions SCIAMACHY, GOSAT, OCO2, and S5P/TROPOMI (Burrows et al., 1995; Hamazaki et al., 2005; Veefkind et al., 2012), satellites have emerged as a candidate technology to measure individual anthropogenic emission sources (Nassar et al., 2017;…”
Assessing nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels as a contributing factor to coronavirus (COVID-19) fatality (2020, background): “The satellite carries a TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) which provides a (near-)global coverage of air pollution caused by NO2 and other pollutants such as O3, SO2, CO, CH4, CH2O and aerosols (Veefkind et al., 2012).”
Comparison of TROPOMI/Sentinel-5 Precursor NO2 observations with ground-based measurements in Helsinki (2019, neutral): “…near-infrared (NIR) and short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) spectral bands, of which the NIR and SWIR bands are new as compared to its predecessor OMI (Veefkind et al., 2012) The TROPOMI NO 2 product used in the comparison was the summed total column, which is the sum of the tropospheric and…”
COVID-19 lockdowns cause global air pollution declines (2020, methodology): “We collected nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and ozone (O3) data from the TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI), on‐board the Sentinel‐5 Precursor satellite (34).”
The operational cloud retrieval algorithms from TROPOMI on board Sentinel-5 Precursor (2017, background): “TROPOMI (Veefkind et al., 2012) has eight spectral bands covering the ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS), NIR, and shortwavelength IR (SWIR) spectral regions, and an unprecedented spatial resolution of 7× 3.5 km2 at nadir for bands 2– 6, from which measurements mostly of the trace gas, aerosol, and…”
Global and time-resolved monitoring of crop photosynthesis with chlorophyll fluorescence (2014, background): “The launch of the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 and the Sentinel 5-Precursor satellite missions in 2014 or 2015 will enormously improve the observational potential for SIF, up to a 100-fold increase in spatiotemporal resolution (42, 43).”
Changes in air quality during the lockdown in Barcelona (Spain) one month into the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic (2020, methodology): “Monitoring Instrument (S5p/TROPOMI) developed by the European Space Agency (ESA), has been used to assess tropospheric NO 2 background levels in a high resolution (3.5×7 km) continuous area (Veefkind et al., 2012) .”
