Abstract
In this paper we present several constrained regularization methods for ozone profile retrieval from UV/VIS nadir sounding instruments such as GOME, SCIAMACHY, OMI and GOME-2. These methods extend the Tikhonov regularization and the iteratively regularized Gauss–Newton method with equality and inequality constraints imposed on the vertical column. It will be shown that this type of information, which is delivered by an independent algorithm like DOAS or GODFIT, significantly improves the accuracy and stability of the profile retrieval.
