Sentinel-5P TROPOMI – Cloud Optical Thickness (COT), Level 3 – Global

This product displays the Cloud Optical Thickness (COT) around the globe. Clouds play a crucial role in the Earth's climate system and have significant effects on trace gas retrievals. The cloud optical thickness is retrieved from the O2-A band using the ROCINN algorithm. The TROPOMI instrument aboard the SENTINEL-5P space craft is a nadir-viewing, imaging spectrometer covering wavelength bands between the ultraviolet and the shortwave infra-red. TROPOMI's purpose is to measure atmospheric properties and constituents. It is contributing to monitoring air quality and providing critical information to services and decision makers. The instrument uses passive remote sensing techniques by measuring the Top Of Atmosphere (TOA) solar radiation reflected by and radiated from the earth and its atmosphere. The four spectrometers of TROPOMI cover the ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS), Near Infra-Red (NIR) and Short Wavelength Infra-Red (SWIR) domains of the electromagnetic spectrum, allowing operational retrieval of the following trace gas constituents: Ozone (O3), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), Formaldehyde (HCHO), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Methane (CH4). Within the INPULS project, innovative algorithms and processors for the generation of Level 3 and Level 4 products, improved data discovery and access technologies as well as server-side analytics for the users are developed.

Weiterentwicklung der Anforderungen an die Formaldehyd- und VOC-Emissionen beim Blauen Engel für Holzwerkstoffe und andere innenraumrelevante Produkte

Der Blaue Engel ist ein zentrales Instrument für die Auswahl von emissionsarmen und umweltfreundlichen Produkten. Vor dem Hintergrund geänderter Prüfbedingungen gemäß Chemikalien-Verbotsverordnung stellte sich die Frage, ob Bodenbeläge, die bereits mit dem Blauen Engel ausgezeichnet sind, die Anforderungen unter den neuen Prüfbedingungen erfüllen und ob die für Formaldehyd genannten Prüfbedingungen auch für die Bewertung der weiteren Emissionen flüchtiger organischer Verbindungen zugrunde gelegt werden können. Hierzu wurden unterschiedliche Bodenbeläge gemäß DIN EN 16516 in den Prüfszenarien nach ChemVerbotsV und AgBB-Schema sowie einige gemäß EN 717-1 vergleichend untersucht. Der Bericht enthält darauf aufbauend Vorschläge für die Weiterentwicklung der Vergabekriterien des Blauen Engel in Bezug auf Formaldehyd und VOC. Veröffentlicht in Texte | 43/2026.

Dissolved organic matter molecular composition data for multiple oceanographic cruises with RV SONNE (SO254, SO245, SO248) and RV POLARSTERN (PS79), Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study and Hawaii Ocean Time-series

This data includes the dissolved organic matter (DOM) molecular composition data obtained via Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry for multiple oceanographic cruises collected in the Atlantic, Pacific and Southern oceans (HOTS, BATS, SO254, SO245, SO248, ANT 28-II, ANT 28-IV, and 28-V) between 2009 and 2017. This analysis was conducted to assess the molecular composition of DOM in the context of ocean mixing. DOM was extracted and desalted using the solid phase extraction method as described in Dittmar et al. 2008. The extracts were stored frozen in methanol until analysis in 2019, when aliquots of the extracts were mixed with 50% ultrapure water (50:50 v/v) and diluted to a final carbon concentration of 2.5 ppm. DOM composition was determined on a SolariX XR FT-ICR-MS (Bruker Daltonik GmbH, Bremen, Germany) equipped with a 15 Tesla superconducting magnet and an electrospray ionization source (ESI; Bruker Apollo II ion source) in negative ion mode, as described in (Bercovici, Dittmar, and Niggemann 2022). Subsequent data processing and molecular formula assignment was conducted in ICBM-OCEAN, as described in (Merder et al. 2020).

METOP GOME-2 - Formaldehyde (HCHO) - Global

Gridded Level 3 formaldehyde (HCHO) column densities derived from the Metop/GOME-2-instruments. In the troposphere HCHO is a short-lived atmospheric constituent caused by incomplete combustion processes, e.g. fossil fuel consumption or biomass buring or it is build by atmospheric chemical species from other volatile organic component (VOCs). It plays an important role in the build up of tropospheric ozone. The total HCHO column is retrieved from GOME solar back-scattered measurements in the UV wavelength region 328.5nm to 346nm [using the DOAS method]. In addition, an air mass factor based on monthly climatological HCHO profiles is considered. The Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment-2 (GOME-2) instrument continues the long-term monitoring of atmospheric trace gas constituents started with GOME / ERS-2 and SCIAMACHY / Envisat. Three instruments operate on board EUMETSAT's Meteorological Operational satellites MetOp-A, -B, and -C, launched in 2006, 2012, and 2018, respectively. GOME-2 measures a range of atmospheric trace constituents, with the emphasis on global ozone distribution. Furthermore, cloud properties and intensities of ultraviolet radiation are retrieved. These data are crucial for monitoring the atmospheric composition and the detection of pollutants. DLR generates operational GOME-2 / MetOp products in the framework of EUMETSAT's Satellite Application Facility on Atmospheric Composition Monitoring (AC-SAF).

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) dynamics obtained through ultra-high resolution mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS) in the anoxic basin Mariager Fjord, Gotland Basin, and Black Sea

We studied dissolved organic matter (DOM) dynamics in the anoxic basin Mariager Fjord, Gotland Basin, and Black Sea. Therefore, we performed a mass spectrometric analysis of DOM extracts via FT-ICR MS on a 15 Tesla solariX XR Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonik GmbH, Bremen, Germany). The system was equipped with an electrospray ionization source (ESI, Bruker Apollo II) applied in negative ionization mode. Methanol extracts were mixed with ultrapure water (50:50 v/v) for FT-ICR MS analysis and diluted to a final DOC concentration of 2.5 mg C/L. 200 single scans with an ion accumulation time of 0.1 s were recorded over a mass range of m/z 100 to 1,000 Da and added to one spectrum. Data processing, molecular formula assignments, and compound category classifications were done with the software pipeline ICBM-OCEAN. All sample data was normalized to the intensity sum of 1. FT-ICR-MS data from Mariager Fjord (Denmark), Gotland Basin (Baltic Sea), Black Sea, and an abiotic (de)oxygenation experiment are provided. The data consists of the molecular formula with corresponding m/z measured at an FT-ICR-MS and relative intensities for each sample of these molecular formulas. Additionally, we included common molecular parameters, including H/C, O/C and S/C ratios for each molecular formula.
