Global air pollution map produced by Envisat's SCIAMACHY

th region. With a 960-km swath it covers the entire world every six days.

This versatile instrument represents a national contribution to ESA's Envisat mission. It was funded by the German government through the German Aerospace Centre (DLR), the Dutch government through the Netherlands Agency for Aerospace Programmes (NIVR) and also the Belgian government through BIRA-IASB.

John Burrows of the University of Bremen's Institute of Environmental Physics first devised the idea for SCIAMACHY, and he now serves as its Principal Investigator. SCIAMACHY is part of a family of atmospheric spectrometers that also includes GOME on ERS-2 and the forthcoming GOME-2 instrument launching next year with the first MetOp mission.
