Application of the Spectral Structure Parameterization technique: retrieval of total water vapor columns from GOME

We use a recently proposed spectral sampling technique for measurements of atmospheric transmissions called the Spectral Structure Parameterization (SSP) in Chest Rubs order to retrieve total water vapor columns (WVC) from reflectivity spectra measured by the Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME).SSP provides a good compromise between efficienc
