The Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME)
This document reports on what can be expected from the improved GOME-2 instrument. In order to underpin the case, the achievements of the existing instrument, GOME-1, in terms of instrument performance, routinely generated data products, and scientific results achieved so far are first summarised, before extrapolating to the expected performances and capabilities of the enhanced version GOME-2 being built for METOP.
