1 SEOM s Sentinel-3/OLC project CAWA: advanced GRASP aerosol retrieval Oleg Dubovik1, Pavel Litvinov1, Xin Huang1, Michael Aspetsberger2, David Fuertes3, Carsten Brockmann4, And Jürgen Fischer5. 1- University of Lille-1, CNRS, France; 2- Catalysts GmbH, High Performance Computing, Linz, Austria; 3- GRASP-SAS, Lille, France; 4- Brockmann-Consult GmbH, Geesthacht, Germany; 5- Free University Berlin,, Berlin, Germany; GRASP

2 MERS: - radiances at seven wavelengths: (413, 443, 490, 510, 560, 665, and 870 nm); - single view AEROSOL: - size distribution (5 or more bins); - spectral index of refraction (7 l); - sphericity; SRFACE: - BRDF (3 spectrally dependent parameters); 41 = (5 (SD) +14 (ref. ind.) + 1 (nonsp.) + 21 (BRDF) )

3 GRASP specifics: nversion scheme: GRASP search in continues space of solution for many parameters (aerosol + surface) ; optimization as Multi-term LSM; adapted for synergy of observations: multi-pixel retrieval; single fitting procedure ; no solution modifications (no averaging, etc.) all parameters (43) are retrieved simultaneously at original resolution of (~6 km) ; no location specific assumptions (except land/water/snow); all a priori constraints general for all pixels (~6 km); singe initial guess;

4 Time-Variability Constraints The concept of multi-pixel retrieval ( t 3 ; x ; y ) t ( t 2 ; x ; y ) z X ( t 1 ; x ; y ) x X X-Variability Constraints

6 The concept MERS/GRASP retrieval works good with synthetic measurements AOD SSA Smoke Dust

7 GRASP/MERS: AOD(560 nm), January March 2008 GRASP is somewhat slow compared to conventional retrievals, but easily mitigated using advanced T technology such as GPGPU First results: Aerosol, 35 km resolution No assumptions!!! ESA CAWA project

8 GRASP/MERS: AOD(560 nm), January - March 2008 Retrieves both: surface (over land) and detailed aerosol properties No assumptions!!! First results: Surface reflectance, 35 km resolution ESA CAWA project

35 GRASP concept: Conclusions: - retrieving many characteristics simultaneously (aerosol + surface); - statistically optimized multi-pixel inversion; - etc. First results are promising for MERS: - reliable AOD and Angstrom, - promising for SSA (dark surfaces, bright-???); - main issue cloud mask Promising alternative retrieval approach for S-3 : - OLC - OLC + SLSTR; - OLC + SLSTR + etc.
