Abstract

The Total Carbon Column Observing Network (TCCON) is a global network of ground-based Fourier Transform InfraRed spectrometers (FTIR). We present the first results obtained in the framework of TCCON at the Izana Station. We find a strong correlation between the retrieved O2 column amounts and the dry pressure column obtained from a high precision barometer. This documents the good quality of the Izana TCCON measurements. We show the retrieved annual cycles (from 05 May, 2009 to 06 June, 2010) of CO2 and we compare to simultaneously performed in-situ measurements.
