Description
This presentation describes the Stratospheric Water and Ozone Satellite Homogenized (SWOOSH) database, which includes vertically resolved ozone and water vapor data from a subset of the limb profiling satellite instruments operating since the 1980s. The primary SWOOSH product is a vertically-resolved zonal-mean monthly-mean merged timeseries. This presentation details the choice of reference measurements, homogenization, and gridding process involved in the construction of the combined SWOOSH product. Furthermore, a discussion of uncertainties in the combined SWOOSH record is presented, and recent efforts at improving uncertainty estimates and including the SAGE III/ISS data are described.
