OCO-3 Publications

The following list compiles publications resulting from the OCO-3 mission, covering a wide range of topics, including spectroscopy, calibration, retrieval algorithm development, uncertainty quantification, top-down atmospheric inversion methodologies, solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence, carbon-climate interactions, point source and urban emission quantification, and various scientific and real-world applications. These publications either describe or utilize data products derived from the OCO-3 mission. Those data products include Level 1B (radiance) to Level 4 produced by both the project team and the broader scientific community. If you have any questions, please contact our Science Team Lead, Junjie Liu.
