Satellite Validation
Scientific paper
Balloon chemical instruments have shown to be very useful for the validation of ENVISAT instruments GOMOS, MIPAS and SCIAMACHY. Nevertheless, it is necessary for that to obtain a very good rendezvous between balloon and satellite instruments. Such rendezvous have often been obtained during the validation campaigns, but for each balloon flight these rendezvous are obtained with only one satellite instrument. Moreover some operational problem could lead to miss the expected rendezvous. The paper presents a first attempt to use the air parcel trajectory concept to use nevertheless such balloon measurements for validation purposes. This concept is applied to the validation of the MIPAS instrument in using the flights of the instruments SALOMON on September 19, 2002 and SPIRALE on October 2, 2002 above Aire sur l'Adour. Difficulties encountered in this work and preliminary conclusions concerning MIPAS validation are given.
