Scientific paper

In this paper, MIPAS level 2 products have been compared against two related reference atmosphere data sets derived for use in MIPAS studies. Such comparisons can highlight areas of difference which may be indicative of problems either with the MIPAS data products, or in the reference atmosphere data sets. A key feature of many of the comparisons is the large scatter of individual profiles which can be seen in certain locations, particularly near the top and bottom altitudes of the retrieved profile, and which can lie well beyond the expected limits from atmospheric variability. Additionally, such comparisons are a good opportunity to investigate the performance of the current cloud clearing of the MIPAS data, and it will be shown that a number of cloud contaminated profiles appear to be present in the MIPAS data set
