Remarks:
- (0) Heavy interferences mainly by O3 (also by H2O and CO2, but less drastic) request precise fitting of ozone lines before proceeding with OCS retrievals.
- (0) The profiles from SL3 were derived via DS by best fitting O3 first. The spectroscopic parameters for interfering O3 are likely to be of better quality for the 1992 mission, if the 1992-Hitran compilation is used.
