Short summary

Here we applied the existing Daily Emissions Constrained by Satellite Observations (DECSO) inversion algorithm to NH₃observations from the CrIS satellite instrument to estimate NH₃emissions. As NH₃ in the atmosphere is influenced by NO_x, we implemented DECSO to estimate NO_x and NH₃ emissions simultaneously. The emissions are derived over Europe for 2020 at a spatial resolution of 0.2° using daily observations from CrIS and TROPOMI. Results are compared to bottom-up emission inventories.
