abstract = {Infrared limb sounding from aircraft can provide 2-D
curtains of multiple trace gas species. However,
conventional limb sounders view perpendicular to the
aircraft axis and are unable to resolve the observed airmass
along their line-of-sight. GLORIA (Gimballed Limb Observer
for Radiance Imaging of the Atmosphere) is a new remote
sensing instrument that is able to adjust its horizontal
view angle with respect to the aircraft flight direction
from 45 degrees to 135 degrees. This will allow for
tomographic measurements of mesoscale structures for a wide
variety of atmospheric constituents.Many flights of the
GLORIA instrument will not follow closed curves that allow
measuring an airmass from all directions. Consequently, it
is examined by means of simulations, what spatial resolution
can be expected under ideal conditions from tomographic
evaluation of measurements made during a straight flight. It
is demonstrated that the achievable horizontal resolution in
the line-of-sight direction could be reduced from over 200
km to around 70 km compared to conventional retrievals and
that the tomographic retrieval is also more robust against
horizontal gradients in retrieved quantities in this
direction. In a second step, it is shown that the
incorporation of channels exhibiting different optical depth
can further enhance the spatial resolution of 3-D retrievals
enabling the exploitation of spectral samples usually not
used for limb sounding due to their opacity.A second problem
for tomographic retrievals is that advection, which can be
neglected for conventional retrievals, plays an important
role for the time-scales involved in a tomographic
measurement flight. This paper presents a method to diagnose
the effect of a time-varying atmosphere on a 3-D retrieval
and demonstrates an effective way to compensate for effects
of advection by incorporating wind-fields from
meteorological datasets as a priori information.},
