Short summary
Comparisons between satellite and ground-based measurements of the
atmosphere are inevitably affected by natural variability due to
mismatches in spatial and temporal co-location. These
additional terms in the comparison error budget are quantified here
for total ozone column comparisons using an Observing System Simulation
Experiment. Even when using tight co-location criteria, atmospheric
variability is found to impact the comparisons significantly.
Comparisons between satellite and ground-based measurements of the
atmosphere are inevitably...
