The MOPITT instrument onboard the NASA TERRA satellite provides the first multi-year CO retrievals that have been recently
used for development and evaluation of tracer assimilation schemes and inverse modeling of surface emissions. In this paper
we review our recent results for the CO data assimilation and inversion of CO surface fluxes using the CMDL surface data and
mid-troposphere MOPITT CO retrievals in the MOZART CTM. We will discuss applications of various assimilation/inversion
schemes, including the specification of the CTM errors, evaluation of potential retrieval and forecast biases, and
assignement of prior emission errors. The estimated 2000-2004 year-to-year variations of the monthly CO emissions on the
global and regional scales will be highlighted.
