Carbon dioxide retrieval of Argus 1000 space data by using GENSPECT line-by-line radiative transfer model

The micro-spectrometer Argus 1000 being in space continuously monitors the sources and sinks of the trace gases. It is commonly believed that among other gases $\text{CO}_\text{2}$ is the major contributor causing the greenhouse effect. Argus 1000 along its orbit gathers the valuable spectral data that can be analyzed and retrieved. In this paper we present the retrieval of $\text{CO}_\text{2}$ gas in the near infrared window $1580$ to $1620$ nm by using line-by-line code GENSPECT. The retrieved Argus 1000 space data taken over British Columbia on May 31, 2010 indicates an enhancement of $\text{CO}_\text{2}$ by about $30\%$.

A single-domain implementation of the Voigt/complex error function by vectorized interpolation

In this work we show how to perform a rapid computation of the Voigt/complex error over a single domain by vectorized interpolation. This approach enables us to cover the entire set of the parameters $x,y \in \mathbb{R}$ required for the HITRAN-based spectroscopic applications. The computational test reveals that within domains $x\in\left[0,15\right]\cap y\in\left[10^{-8},15\right]$ and $x\in\left[0,50000\right]\cap y\geq 10^{-8}$ our algorithmic implementation is faster in computation by factors of about $8$ and $3$, respectively, as compared to the fastest known C/C++ code for the Voigt/complex error function. A rapid MATLAB code is presented.
