MOPITT Derived CO (Near Infrared Radiances) V009

Published by NASA/LARC/SD/ASDC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: May 18, 2026 at 03:15 PM | Dataset Last Updated: May 11, 2026
MOP02N_9 is the Measurements Of Pollution In The Troposphere (MOPITT) Derived carbon monoxide (CO) (Near Infrared Radiances) version 9 dataset. It consists of geo-located, retrieved CO profiles and total column amounts for CO. Ancillary data concerning surface properties and cloud conditions at the locations of the retrieved parameters are also included. An estimated error accompanies each retrieval. MOPITT was successfully launched into sun-synchronous polar orbit aboard Terra, NASA's first Earth Observing System spacecraft, on December 18, 1999. The MOPITT instrument was constructed by a consortium of Canadian companies and funded by the Space Science Division of the Canadian Space Agency. Data collection for this product is ongoing.
