Abstract The Community Long-term Infrared Microwave Combined Atmospheric Product
System (CLIMCAPS) retrieves vertical profiles of temperature, water vapor, greenhouse and …

The variance-covariance matrix (VCM) and the averaging kernel matrix (AKM) are widely
used tools to characterize atmospheric vertical profiles retrieved from remote sensing …

A new method for the data fusion of atmospheric vertical profiles, referred to as complete
fusion, is presented. Using the measurements of the MIPAS instrument, the performance of …

The thermal infrared nadir spectra of IASI (Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer)
are successfully used for retrievals of different atmospheric trace gas profiles. However …

The complete data fusion (CDF) method is applied to ozone profiles obtained from simulated
measurements in the ultraviolet and in the thermal infrared in the framework of the Sentinel 4 …

Synergistic exploitation of redundant and complementary information from independent
observations of the same target remains a major issue in atmospheric remote sounding and …

The combination of data obtained with different sensors (data fusion) is a powerful technique
that can provide target products of the best quality in terms of precision and accuracy, as …

A quality quantifier, referred to as measurement quality quantifier (MQQ), is proposed for
indirect measurements. It satisfies the property that the MQQ of the data fusion of two or …

Techniques of data fusion are presently being considered with increasing interest for
application to atmospheric observations from space because of their capability to optimally …
