分析了MOPITT观测反演的一氧化碳（CO）混合比垂直廓线。我们发现，CO的垂直结构的变化可以检测到的MOPITT数据。首次观测到亚洲夏季风羽流中的CO，这是印度和中国南部对流层上部（UT）CO的强烈增强，表明深对流输送的影响。同样，2002年9月至12月的纬向平均高度纬度横截面表明，在南部热带地区，生物质燃烧产生的CO的深对流输送。这些结果表明，MOPITT CO可以提供对流层垂直输送现象的有价值的信息。
Vertical profiles of carbon monoxide (CO) mixing ratio retrieved from MOPITT measurements have been analyzed. We find that variations in the vertical structure of CO can be detected in the MOPITT data. The Asian summer monsoon plume in CO is observed for the first time as a strong enhancement of CO in the upper troposphere (UT) over India and southern China indicating the effect of deep convective transport. Similarly, zonal mean height latitude cross‐sections for the months of September–December, 2002 indicate deep convective transport of CO from biomass burning in the southern tropics. These findings show that MOPITT CO can provide valuable information on vertical transport phenomena in the troposphere.
