Improving the Retrievals of Greenhouse Gases from Ground-Based Solar Absorption Spectra

A quadratic speed-dependent Voigt (qSDV) line shape with line mixing (LM) has been implemented into the forward model of the spectral fitting software GFIT to improve the retrievals of total columns of CO2, CH4, and O2 from high-resolution ground-based solar absorption spectra. Absorption coefficien...
