“…This is possibly caused by the more poorly understood spectroscopy of methane, specifically the lack of accurate air-broadening coefficients and temperature dependencies, which has been noted by Rothman et al (2005), Brown et al (2003) and Worden et al (2004).…”

Abstract. An intercomparison of three Fourier transform spectrometers (FTSs) with significantly different resolutions is presented. The highest-resolution instrument has a maximum optical path difference of 250 cm, and the two lowerresolution instruments have maximum optical path differences of 50 cm and 25 cm. The results indicate that the two lower-resolution instruments can retrieve total column amounts of O 3 , HCl, N 2 O and CH 4 using the SFIT2 retrieval code with percent differences from the high-resolution instrument generally better than 4%. Total column amounts of the stratospheric species (O 3 and HCl) have larger differences than those of the tropospheric species (N 2 O and CH 4 ). Instrument line shape (ILS) information is found to be of critical importance when retrieving total columns of stratospheric gases from the lower-resolution instruments. Including the ILS information in the retrievals significantly reduces the difference in total column amounts between the three instruments. The remaining errors for stratospheric species total column amounts can be attributed to the lower sensitivity of the lower-resolution FTSs to the stratosphere.

“…[140,141]. For the pentad, about 500 prior measurements [138] were used along with approximately 3800 predicted values for γ air , n, and δ of the ν 3 transitions from Antony et al [142]. Scaled N 2 -broadening from Frankenberg et al [132] were inserted from 5860 to 6184 cm -1 and a few hundred values for γ air , were entered between 5560 to 5860 cm -1 [143].…”

“…Since Raman and Rayleigh scattering contributions are limited, this spectral region presents significant advantages for reliable quantitative interpretation of theoretical and/or observational atmospheric and astrophysical data. Methane (CH 4 ), which is an important atmospheric constituent in many planetary systems, has dense transition lines with strong absorption near 3-4 µm [1][2]. Identification and quantification of these lines in the spectrum are of considerable interest for the retrieval of CH 4 abundance in planetary atmosphere.…”
