CCI+P HCHO tropospheric column L3 data from GOME-2, v1

GOME2A level-3 gridded tropospheric HCHO column, version 1.

Monthly grids at spatial resolution of 0.2°x0.2°.

Based on the QA4ECV GOME2A Level 2 Formaldehyde Total Column product. Version 1.

In addition to the main product results, such as HCHO slant column, vertical column and air mass factor, the level 3 data files contain several additional parameters and diagnostic information such as uncertainties, a priori profiles and averaging kernels.

Created for the ESA CCI ozone and aerosol precursors project.
