The Total Carbon Column Observing Network (TCCON) column-averaged dry air mole fraction of CH4 ( XCH4) measurements have been widely used to validate satellite observations and to estimate model simulations. The GGG2014 code is the standard TCCON retrieval software used in performing a profile scali...
