A comparison of OEM CO retrievals from the IASI and MOPITT instruments (2011)
Journal Article
Illingworth, S. M., Remedios, J. J., Boesch, H., Ho, S., Edwards, D., Palmer, P., & Gonzi, S. (2011). A comparison of OEM CO retrievals from the IASI and MOPITT instruments. Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 4, 775-793. https://doi.org/10.5194/amt-4-775

Observations of atmospheric carbon monoxide (CO) can only be made on continental and global scales by remote sensing instruments situated in space. One such instrument is the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI), producing spectrally r... Read More about A comparison of OEM CO retrievals from the IASI and MOPITT instruments.

ULIRS, an optimal estimation retrieval scheme for carbon monoxide using IASI spectral radiances: sensitivity analysis, error budget and simulations (2011)
Journal Article
Illingworth, S., Remedios, J. J., Boesch, H., Moore, D. P., Sembhi, H., Dudhia, A., & Walker, J. C. (2011). ULIRS, an optimal estimation retrieval scheme for carbon monoxide using IASI spectral radiances: sensitivity analysis, error budget and simulations

This paper presents a new retrieval scheme for tropospheric carbon monoxide (CO), using measured radiances from the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) onboard the MetOp-A satellite. The University of Leicester IASI Retrieval Scheme (...

The nuclear ring in the barred spiral galaxy IC 4933 (2010)
Journal Article
Ryder, S. D., Illingworth, S. M., Sharp, R. G., & Farage, C. L. (2010). The nuclear ring in the barred spiral galaxy IC 4933. Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 27(1), 56-63. https://doi.org/10.1071/AS09016

We present infrared imaging from IRIS2 on the Anglo–Australian Telescope that shows the barred spiral galaxy IC 4933 has not just an inner ring encircling the bar, but also a star-forming nuclear ring 1.5 kpc in diameter. Imaging in the u′ band with... Read More about The nuclear ring in the barred spiral galaxy IC 4933.

Potential for the use of reconstructed IASI radiances in the detection of atmospheric trace gases (2010)
Journal Article
Atkinson, N. C., Hilton, F., Illingworth, S. M., Eyre, J., & Hultberg, T. (2010). Potential for the use of reconstructed IASI radiances in the detection of atmospheric trace gases. Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 3, 991-1003. https://doi.org/10.5194/a

Principal component (PC) analysis has received considerable attention as a technique for the extraction of meteorological signals from hyperspectral infra-red sounders such as the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) and the Atmospheri...
