Ground-based FTIR and IASI-A and -B measurements of PAN, supplemented with GEOS-Chem simulations. End users of these data sets are invited to contact the authors to make sure they are using the data properly and check about the possible availability of more recent products. The University of Liège (ULiège) team has been primarily supported by the Fonds de la Recherche Scientifique (F.R.S. – FNRS, Brussels, Belgium; grant no. J.0147.18), and by the GAW-CH program of MeteoSwiss (Zürich, Switzerland). E. Mahieu is a Senior Research Associate with the F.R.S. – FNRS. His stay at the Lauder station, New Zealand, was supported by the F.R.S. – FNRS mobility grant n° 35143414. We thank the International Foundation High Altitude Research Stations Jungfraujoch and Gornergrat (HFSJG, Bern) for supporting the facilities needed to perform the FTIR observations at Jungfraujoch. The development of the IASI PAN product has been supported by the project OCTAVE (Oxygenated Compounds in the Tropical Atmosphere: Variability and Exchanges, http://octave.aeronomie.be) of the Belgian Research Action through Interdisciplinary Networks (BRAIN-be) research program (2017–2021; Research project BR/175/A2/OCTAVE) and by the IASI.Flow Prodex arrangement (ESA-BELSPO). L. Clarisse is Research Associate supported by the F. R. S.-FNRS. IASI is a joint mission of Eumetsat and the Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales (CNES, France). The IASI Level-1C data are distributed in near real time by Eumetsat through the EumetCast system distribution. The University of Bremen work has been supported by the German research foundation (DFG) in the project no. 268020496-TRR 172, within the Transregional Collaborative Research Center "ArctiC Amplification: Climate Relevant Atmospheric and SurfaCe Processes, and Feedback Mechanisms (AC)3" in subproject E02. The University of Bremen has further been funded by the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) in the project TROSTRA (01LG1904A) and the by Senate of Bremen. We also thank the AWI Bremerhaven for ...
