The article “Global Nigeria acid emissions and levels of regional oxidants enhanced by wildfires” published by Theys et al. in Nature Geoscience greatly inspired me. I am currently trying to replicate the inversion method they used to invert HONO and NO2; However, my results did not meet their accuracy. Can you share the QDOAS inversion configuration script for NO2 inversion by TROPOMI or any relevant data that can help me? I greatly appreciate your help and look forward to your reply. thank you very much!

Hi, I can’t share the specific configuration from that publication with you. The configuration for Tropomi HCHO retrievals from our use case [Usecase\_8\_QDOAS\_AMF](https://atmospherictoolbox.org/media/usecases/Usecase_8_QDOAS_AMF.html) should provide a good starting point.

Don’t hesitate to ask if you have more specific questions about the use of the software.

Thomas

Thanks for your reply, I’ll carefully read and study this tutorial.
