17. SABER Data Quality Status
Good confidence in retrieved temperatures up to ~95 km
- NLTE data especially important outside the tropics
NLTE O3 agrees with HALOE to within ~ 20% for ~ 20 km to
60 km. High bias in the mesosphere with respect to HALOE.
Very good agreement between SABER 1.27m and 9.6m O3
LTE H2O in the stratosphere biased high with respect to
HALOE
Broad scale O3 and H2O morphology appears to be reasonable
Radiance and volume emission rate quality is excellent
Retrievals using line mixing and optimized pressure
registration window provides significant improvements
