Abstract:

We present a new version of O$_3$ data retrieved
from the three Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmo-
spheric Sounding (MIPAS) observation modes that we refer
to for simplicity as the modes of the middle atmosphere (mid-
dle atmosphere, MA; upper atmosphere, UA; and noctilucent
cloud, NLC). The O$_3$ profiles cover altitudes from 20 up to
100 km for the daytime and up to 105 km at nighttime, for all
latitudes, and the period 2005 until 2012. The data have been
obtained with the IMK–IAA (Institute of Meteorology and
Climate Research and Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía)
MIPAS level-2 data processor and are based on ESA version-
8 re-calibrated radiance spectra with improved temporal sta-
bility. The processing included several improvements with
respect to the previous version, such as the consistency of
the microwindows and spectroscopic data with those used in
the nominal-mode V8R data, the O$_3$ a priori profiles, and
updates of the non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (non-
LTE) parameters and the nighttime atomic oxygen. In par-
ticular, the collisional relaxation of O3(v1,v3) by the atomic
oxygen was reduced by a factor of 2 in order to obtain a
