The main output of the algorithm are SO2 vertical column density, slant column density, air mass factor, Averaging Kernels (AK), and error estimates. Here, we will first briefly discuss the principle of the DOAS VCD retrieval before discussing the separate steps of the process in more detail.\r\n\r\nFirst, the radiance and irradiance data are read from an S5P L1b file, along with geolocation data such as pixel coordinates and observation geometry (sun and viewing angles). At this stage also cloud cover information is obtained from the S5P cloud L2 data, as required for the calculation of the AMF, later in the scheme. Then relevant absorption cross-section data (SO2), as well as characteristics of the instrument (e.g., slit functions) are used as input for the SO2 slant column density determination. As a baseline, the slant column fit is done in a sensitive window from 312 to 326 nm. For pixels with a strong SO2 signal, results from alternative windows, where the SO2 absorption is weaker, can be used instead. An empirical offset correction (dependent on the fitting window used) is then applied to the SCD. The latter correction accounts for systematic biases in the SCDs. Following the SCD determination, the AMF is estimated. For computational efficiency, the algorithm makes no ‘on the fly’ calculation but uses a pre-calculated box air mass factor look-up table (LUT). This lookup-table is generated using the LIDORT radiative transfer code and has several entries: cloud cover data, topographic information, observation geometry, surface albedo, effective wavelength (representative of the fitting window used), total ozone column, and the shape of the vertical SO2 profile. The algorithm also includes an error calculation and retrieval characterization module that computes the so-called DOAS-type averaging kernels (Eskes & Boersma, 2003), which characterize the vertical sensitivity of the measurement and which are required for comparison with other types of data (Veefkind et al., 2012).

The latitude and longitude resolution of this land-sea mask is 2 minutes.\r\nCompute tracker ranges corrected for USO frequency drift: This algorithm computes the USO correction from an Auxiliary Data File called \"USO file\" and this correction is applied to the tracker range.

The \"CAL1 LTM file\" provides the internal path delay measured on-board thanks to the CAL1 calibration mode, which measures the difference of travel between the transmission and the reference lines within the altimeter.

The AGC instrumental correction is computed taking into account the real gain value applied on-board and stored as a matrix table on an Auxiliary Data File called \"characterisation file\".\r\nCorrect and apply power & phase corrections: This algorithm computes and applies to each burst the phase and power variations within all the echoes of every burst. These phase and power corrections are measured on-board through a sequence of calibration echoes in CAL1 calibration mode.\r\nCorrect the waveforms: On-board, there is a calibration mode called CAL2 that is able to compute the Gain Profile Range Window (GPRW) that provides the information of the attenuation of the samples of the Level. The GPRW accounts for several instrumental effects (e.g. intermediate frequency filters gain response) that have an impact on the Level 0 waveforms power. This algorithm corrects these Level-0 waveforms by the GPRW instrumental effects.\r\nCompute surface locations: In the SAR_Ku processing chain, the output measurements are referenced to surface locations along the satellite track. These surface locations correspond with the intersection of the Doppler beams with an estimation of the surface elevations. These surface locations are used along all L1 SAR_Ku processing.\r\nDetermine Doppler beams direction: This algorithm determines the angular spacing between the instantaneous zero Doppler plane and the lines defined by the burst centre and the reference surface locations \"observed\" within the burst sequence.\r\nDoppler beams generation: This algorithm generates the Doppler beams in the frequency domain.

This correction is needed to remove the echoes frequency shifts due to sensor-target velocity. The Doppler correction is computed and applied in the frequency domain to each Doppler beam. This correction is a function of the emitted frequency, the pulse emitted duration, the satellite velocity of the beams, the emitted bandwidth and the sign of the slope of the transmitted chirp.\r\nCompute and apply slant range corrections: This algorithm computes the slant corrections (both fine and coarse) that correct the range-migration due to the motion of the sensor along the orbit.\r\nRange compression: This algorithm performs a range compression of the waveform that is the conversion of each Doppler processed burst of pulse-width time domain echoes to the frequency domain.\r\nTracker alignment correction: This algorithm corrects the azimuth processed echo stack for on-board tracker variation.

The left map shows the observed changes in annual mean surface temperature in the period of 1850–2020 per °C of global warming (°C).

The historical changes are observed (from tide gauges before 1992 and altimeters afterwards), and the future changes are assessed consistently with observational constraints based on emulation of CMIP, ice sheet, and glacier models. Likely ranges are shown for SSP1-2.6 and SSP3-7.0. Only likely ranges are assessed for sea level changes due to difficulties in estimating the distribution of deeply uncertain processes. The dashed curve indicates the potential impact of these deeply uncertain processes. It shows the 83rd percentile of SSP5-8.5 projections that include low-likelihood, high-impact ice sheet processes that cannot be ruled out; because of low confidence in projections of these processes, this curve does not constitute part of a likely range. Changes relative to 1900 are calculated by adding 0.158 m (observed global mean sea level rise from 1900 to 1995–2014) to simulated and observed changes relative to 1995–2014.\r\n\r\nPanel e): Global mean sea level change at 2300 in meters relative to 1900. Only SSP1-2.6 and SSP5-8.5 are projected at 2300, as simulations that extend beyond 2100 for the other scenarios are too few for robust results. The 17th–83rd percentile ranges are shaded. The dashed arrow illustrates the 83rd percentile of SSP5-8.5 projections that include low-likelihood, high-impact ice sheet processes that cannot be ruled out.\r\n\r\nPanels b) and c) are based on single simulations from each model, and so include a component of internal variability.

The confidence level for the human influence on these observed changes is based on assessing trend detection and attribution and event attribution literature, and it is indicated by the number of dots: three dots for high confidence, two dots for medium confidence and one dot for low confidence (filled: limited agreement; empty: limited evidence). \r\n\r\nPanel a) For hot extremes, the evidence is mostly drawn from changes in metrics based on daily maximum temperatures; regional studies using other indices (heatwave duration, frequency and intensity) are used in addition. Red hexagons indicate regions where there is at least medium confidence in an observed increase in hot extremes. \r\n\r\nPanel b) For heavy precipitation, the evidence is mostly drawn from changes in indices based on one-day or five-day precipitation amounts using global and regional studies. Green hexagons indicate regions where there is at least medium confidence in an observed increase in heavy precipitation. \r\n\r\nPanel c) Agricultural and ecological droughts are assessed based on observed and simulated changes in total column soil moisture, complemented by evidence on changes in surface soil moisture, water balance (precipitation minus evapotranspiration) and indices driven by precipitation and atmospheric evaporative demand. Yellow hexagons indicate regions where there is at least medium confidence in an observed increase in this type of drought and green hexagons indicate regions where there is at least medium confidence in an observed decrease in agricultural and ecological drought. \r\n\r\nFor all regions, table TS.5 shows a broader range of observed changes besides the ones shown in this figure. Note that SSA is the only region that does not display observed changes in the metrics shown in this figure, but is affected by observed increases in mean temperature, decreases in frost, and increases in marine heatwaves. {11.9, Table TS.5, Box TS.10, Figure 1, Atlas 1.3.3, Figure Atlas.2}", "keywords": "", "inputDescription": null, "outputDescription": null, "softwareReference": null, "identifier_set": [] }, { "ob_id": 33259, "uuid": "847e841295024995b6d3be4ce9268c58", "title": "Caption for Figure 2.13 from Chapter 2 of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6)", "abstract": "Changes in surface humidity.
