TEMPO Validation Activities: Ozone validation plan Mike Newchurch and the TEMPO validation team 28 May 2015 3 rd TEMPO Science Team Meeting UAHuntsville, Alabama

O 3 Correlative data and Tools • Correlative data – – – – • Ground-based (sfc, Pandora, lidar) and ozonesonde points, profiles, and columns. Aircraft and space-borne (best effort) Measured vs. modeled radiances (best effort) Measured and modeled geophysical products (best effort) Climatologies (best effort) Spatial and temporal gradients (best effort) Spatio-temporal distributions, captured gradients /patterns , scale effects (high (pixel level) and low (urban/regional) resolution pattern comparisons. Best effort. ) Tools – – – 10/7/2020 Column and profile bias and variances Averaging kernels and vertical sensitivity, correlations Error covariances Scale effects Information content • Eigenanalyses/Principal Component Analyses • DFS Document Title 2

Pre-launch and Post-launch Activities • Pre-launch activities: Prepare data ingest – – – • Surface Networks Profiling/column Networks Aircraft (best effort) Satellite instruments (best effort) Campaigns (best effort) Post-launch activities: Perform intercomparisons – Surface networks (some best effort) • • – Profiling/column Networks (distinguish which are TEMPO-funded and part of PLRA Level 1 requirements) • • – Geo-TASO ACAM/GCAS Satellite instruments (coordinate for best effort, e. g. , NRAs) • • • 10/7/2020 TOLNet (best effort) NDACC (best effort) PANDORA (subset of US) Ozonesonde (subset of US) Dobson/Brewer (US & Canada, best effort) NAPS/Canada (best effort) Mexico (best effort) Aircraft (coordinate for best effort, e. g. , EV suborbital or ACP campaigns) • • – CAPABLE/La. RC PAMS/State&Local SPARTAN (US & Canada) IMPROVE NCore/EPA Air. Now/EPA’ Mexico TROPOMI GOME-2 NPP/OMPS Document Title 3

Pre-launch and Post-launch Activities – Milestones • L-24 M to L – – – Coordinate ground-based assets operation and access Develop tools for intercomparisons Exercise forward models Create and exercise Level 1 and Level 2 datasets Implement validation tools • L+3 M to L+15 M – Perform validation measurements – Intensive Campaigns (best effort) • L+3 M to L+15 M: TOLNet, Pandora, O 3 sondes @ home locations • L+3 M to L+15 M: TOLNet, Pandora, sondes @ UC Berkeley (best effort) • L+3 M to L+15 M: Aircraft (ACAM/GCAS, Geo-TASO) @ CA 10/7/2020 Document Title 4
