GES DISC Science Keyword Request for TROPESS
Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2023 5:07 pm America/New_York
Good afternoon -
GES DISC is requesting three new science keywords to support the new TROPESS mission.
"EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > AEROSOLS > AMMONIUM AEROSOLS"
"EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > AEROSOLS > NITRATE AEROSOLS"
"EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > AEROSOLS > SULFATE AEROSOLS"
This allows just a single keyword rather than using, for example, two separate aerosols and nitrates keywords.
Note there are already the following for sulfates (SO42-) and nitrates (NO3-), but there is none for ammonium (NH4+) [not to be confused with ammonia NH3]:
"EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > AEROSOLS > SULFATE PARTICLES"
"EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > AEROSOLS > NITRATE PARTICLES"

Thank you!
