Annotation: The article describes the method of empirical orthogonal functions and its modifications for the solution of recovery tasks of the total content of carbon dioxide in the real measured from satellite instrument GOSAT. The results of data processing model calculations of spectra of reflected from the surface solar radiation in the near infrared spectral range, as well as real satellite data for the station Lamont terrestrial network TCCON.
