The Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) instrument can distinguish between aerosol types, such as smoke, dust, and sulfates, and measures cloud pressure and coverage, which provides data to derive tropospheric ozone.

Mar 7, 2025 · The Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) aboard NASA's Aura satellite (launched in 2004) measures ozone from Earth's surface to top-of-atmosphere. OMI also measures sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ), aerosols, and cloud top pressure.

The Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) uses an imaging spectrometer to distinguish between aerosol types, such as smoke, dust, and sulfates. It measures cloud pressure and coverage, which provides data to derive tropospheric ozone.

Oct 21, 2024 · Aura's Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) instrument can distinguish between aerosol types, such as smoke, dust, and sulfates, and measures cloud pressure and coverage, which provides data to derive tropospheric ozone.

This tool allows OMI or OPMS daily ozone values to be retrieved as a time series for a specific latitude and longitude coordinate and date range. The resulting dataset can be generated in either CSV-text or an XY-Plot in PNG format.

Scientists will use OMI measurements of ozone and cloud cover to derive the amount of ultraviolet radiation (UV) reaching the Earth’s surface. The National Weather Service will use OMI data to forecast high UV index days for public health awareness.

The ozone monitoring instrument (OMI) [1] is a nadir-viewing visual and ultraviolet spectrometer aboard the NASA Aura spacecraft, which is part of the satellite constellation A-Train.

The ozone monitoring instrument (OMI) distinguishes between aerosol types, such as smoke, dust, and sulfates, and can measure cloud pressure and coverage, which provide data to derive tropospheric ozone. OMI continues the TOMS record for total ozone and other atmospheric parameters related to ozone chemistry and climate.

Nov 2, 2022 · Built by Dutch Space (now Airbus Defense and Space Netherlands) and aerospace company TNO, OMI is a nadir-viewing wide-field-imaging spectrometer designed to provide high-resolution observations of O 3, NO 2 (total as well as tropospheric columns), and SO 2, as well as other trace gases and aerosols like dust and smoke by measuring mid-range ult...

This document describes the theoretical basis of the OMI ozone product algorithms. We propose to develop 3 separate ozone products from OMI: Total column ozone, ozone vertical
