Ground-level NO 2 Concentrations Inferred from OMI Lok Lamsal, Dalhousie University Randall Martin, Dalhousie and Harvard-Smithsonian Aaron van Donkelaar, Dalhousie University Martin Steinbacher, Empa Edward Celarier, SGT Inc. Eric Bucsela, NASA GSFC Edward Dunlea, CIRES Joseph Pinto, EPA

Large Regions Have Insufficient In Situ NO 2 Measurements for Air Quality NO 2 Toxic Pollutant Associated with Mortality In Situ Monitors Contaminated with Reactive Nitrogen Highest NO 2 maximum quarterly mean by county, 2001

OMI Tropospheric NO 2 Column Proxy for Surface Concentration NO / NO2   with altitude

Tropospheric NO 2 Column Strongly Related to Ground-level Concentration over Land Martin et al., 2004 Texas AQS ICARTT Martin et al., 2006 In Situ GEOS-Chem In Situ GEOS-Chem Eastern North America New England

Approach to Infer Surface NO 2 from OMI 100% error in GEOS-Chem surface NO 2  < 10% error in derived surface NO 2 in polluted areas OMI Tropospheric NO 2 Column S → Surface NO 2 Ω → Tropospheric NO 2 column In Situ GEOS-Chem i GEOS-Chem NO 2 Profile OMI Local Information GEOS-Chem Grid

Supported by NASA ROSES Promising satellite-based surface NO 2 estimate Need for additional validation of surface NO 2 with “true” NO 2 Surface measurements provide indirect validation of NO 2 columns Conclusions Acknowledgement
