OVERVIEW OF MIPAS OPERATIONAL PRODUCTS

After 2 years of quasi continuously operations (from July 2002 to March 2004), MIPAS on ENVISAT was stopped due to problems in the mirror drive of the interferometer. Operations with reduced spectral resolution and a new measurement scenario were resumed in January 2005. Significant modifications were performed in the ESA operational processor in both the algorithms and the auxiliary data. Performances evaluated on the basis of the first set of available MIPAS measurements in the new operation mode processed with the ESA operational processor are discussed in this paper. The new measurements are characterised by an improved vertical and horizontal resolution and a reduced standard deviation. The analysis of χ2-test statistics indicate that larger mean χ2- values are found in the new operation mode, especially for O3, CH4 and N2O.
