The GOMOS QWG

Hello,

during this week I participated for the first time the GOMOS quality working group (QWG) meeting held at European space research institute (ESRIN) that is dedicated to European Space Agency's Earth-observing activities, in Frascati, Italy.

We had some nice discussion about GOMOS quality and I personally presented one task related to the ALGOM project. My task is related to possible improvements of GOMOS ozone at UTLS altitudes using the so-called OneStep approach. OneStep is of course related to my PhD thesis and in particular this paper. The results so far show that, in fact, we can drastically improve the quality of GOMOS UTLS ozone using OneStep algorithm and 1/λ aerosol model.

After the QWG meeting myself, Erkki and Viktoria had some time to visit the eternal city of Rome:
The white thing that you seen on the background is the national monument to Vittorio Emmanuel II.

This of course is the Colosseum with the Moon.

This is my old home in San Lorenzo. I spent the academic year of 2006/2007 studying at Università degli studi Roma Tre.
Saluti da Roma,

Janne
