• Carbon monitoring system flux estimation and attribution: impact of ACOS-GOSAT XCO2 sampling on the inference of terrestrial biospheric sources and sinks (2014, methodology): “9 retrievals (Crisp et al., 2012; O’Dell et al., 2012) produced by the NASA Atmospheric CO2 observations from Space (ACOS) algorithm, which will also be used with the forthcoming NASA Orbital Carbon Observatory (OCO-2) satellite (Crisp et al., 2008).”

• The on-orbit performance of the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) instrument and its radiometrically calibrated products (2016, methodology): “…carries and points a single instrument that incorporates three co-boresighted, long-slit imaging grating spectrometers optimized for observing the O2 Aband at 0.765 µm and the “weak” and “strong” CO2 bands at 1.61 and 2.06 µm (Crisp et al., 2004, 2008; Haring et al., 2004; Pollock et al., 2010).”
• Effect of increasing CO2 on the terrestrial carbon cycle (2014, background): “a geostationary sensor is likely required to separate fluxes in intact versus deforested regions (47, 48).”
