Inverse modelling of carbon dioxide surface fluxes - estimating uncertainties due to model design and observational constraints

by Arne Babenhauserheide

This study shows shows that adding measurements decreases the uncertainty of the estimated fluxes due to differences between the models and that total column measurements complement in-situ measurements. To this end it implements usage of ground-based total column measurements for inverse modelling which lays the foundation for adding more measurement sources, from ground as well as from satellite.
