Abstract

The MOPITT (Measurements of Pollution in the Troposphere) Airborne Test Radiometer (MATR) uses gas filter correlation radiometry to measure tropospheric carbon monoxide (CO) using one length-modulated correlation cell (LMC) and one pressure-modulated correlation cell (PMC). The aircraft that carries MATR usually also carries an in-situ sampling system. This paper presents an overview of the MATR instrument and its validation (using in-situ data), and then presents results from a recent flight over Los Angeles.
