4) Summary and Outlook
E-To-Go-Europe
METHANE-T
• Airborne in situ SO 2 measurements were for the first time successfully conducted downwind of
two major coal-fired power plants in Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina
Two TROPOMI underpass validation flights were conducted and revealed important lessons
learned for future flights
•
Validation of TROPOMI-SO2 with Falcon-SO2 looks promising for the flight in Serbia
.
.
Mass Balance estimate of Falcon-SO2 looks promising for the flight in Bosnia
Improvements on Falcon-SO2 data quality of extreme high SO2 mixing ratios
• Ongoing refinements on mass balance estimation, MECO(n) and WRF-Chem model simulations
Comparison of SO 2 Vertical Column Densities over designated areas using TROPOMI and
combined Falcon-MECO(n)-SO2 data
.
Future TROMOPI-SO2 validation flights envisaged within the framework of METHANE-To-Go
