Glyoxal is an intermediate product in the oxidation process of most VOC and an indicator of secondary aerosol formation in the atmosphere. Similar to other VOC, glyoxal is mainly emitted from natural processes, however has also a significant contribution from fires and anthropogenic sources. Since many years the number of retrievals of glyoxal abundances from satellite instruments using the DOAS method has increased. Most recently, some studies focused on improving the retrieval of glyoxal from different satellite measurements in order to reduce the uncertainties in the glyoxal columns and in estimation of VOC emissions. This study focuses on a new homogenized glyoxal product using AMF computed based on profiles simulated with the TM4-ECPL chemistry transport model. This retrieval algorithm is applied to (a) SCIAMACHY, (b) OMI, and (c) the two GOME-2 (A and B). Overall, the retrieved glyoxal column amounts from the homogenized retrieval algorithm show similar seasonal behavior among the instruments over selected regions.
