Scan Cycle

HIRDLS Limb Viewing Geometry (Satellite moving clockwise)

Data processing 1. CO 2 mixing ratio is well known 2. Using this information and CO 2 radiance measurements to determine temperature/pressure information 3. Using temperature/pressure data with blackbody formula to calculate mixing ratios of the constituent of interest
