2 Large regions lack sufficient in-situ data for air quality NO 2 associated with mortality Limitations of current NO 2 networks  Insufficient NO 2 measurements for air quality  NO 2 measurements contaminated by reactive nitrogen species Satellite-derived surface NO 2 complement the existing ground-based networks NO 2 monitoring networks

3 Tropospheric column as a proxy for surface NO 2 No profile information in satellite measurements 70-90% of tropospheric column in polluted boundary layer San Francisco Los Angeles Phoenix Houston Dallas Chicago Toronto OMI tropospheric NO 2 column (standard product)

4 Approach to derive surface NO 2 from OMI S  Surface NO 2   Tropospheric NO 2 column Information of NO 2 profile shape from GEOS-Chem GEOS-CHEM In situ Texas AQS (Martin et al, 2004) GEOS-Chem (2x2.5 o ) OMI (2x2.5 o ) OMI (0.2x0.2 o ) GG OO  F  free tropospheric NO 2

11 Comparison between in-situ and OMI-derived surface NO 2 corrected in-situ OMI-derivedPSS-NO 2 uncorrected in-situ

12 Comparison between OMI and in-situ measurements according to land use type OMI-derived surface NO 2 is biased low by 6 to 40% Seasonal bias in OMI-derived surface NO 2
