This paper presents inverse modelling estimates of the El-Nino related fires in Indonesia in 2015. MOPITT and IASI satellite data are used to constrain emissions.


 Figure 2. Measured weekly averaged (a) MOPITT and (b) IASI CO columns over Indonesia and Papua, and modelled by the prior GFAS and posterior IASI and MOPITT inversions. (c) Prior TM5 columns for IASI and MOPITT before and after applying the averaging kernel. The MOPITT retrieval prior, originating from a CAM-chem simulation with climatological biomass burning emissions, is also shown.
