Scientific paper

The MIPAS operational data products of selected trace gases (O3, H2O, NO2 and CH4, all v4.61) are validated by comparison with the space borne instruments HALOE (v19) and SAGE II (6.2). The data were limited to the validation reference data set (July 2002 to December 2002). The results of these satellite intercomparisons presented in this paper show a reasonable data quality for these validated MIPAS trace gas products: MIPAS O3 profiles are within 5 to 15% (RMS <15%) and the H2O profiles show a positive bias of 1 to 15% (RMS 5-25%) compared to HALOE and SAGE II. MIPAS NO2 profiles (including photochemical corrections for HALOE NO2 data) are within -15 to 30% (RMS 10-35%) and the CH4 profiles show a positive bias of 5 to 15% (RMS 10-25%) compared to HALOE
