The Optical Spectrograph and InfraRed Imaging System (OSIRIS) on board the Odin satellite has been used to provide vertically resolved aerosol extinction since 2001. The OSIRIS version 5.07 aerosol product has been used in numerous studies and now provides a 17-year record of global stratospheric aerosol. This work presents the new version 7 OSIRIS aerosol extinction retrieval. A multiwavelength aerosol extinction algorithm has been developed to reduce measurement geometry biases and improve extinction retrieval in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere. The Chen et al. (2016, ) cloud detection algorithm has been adapted for the OSIRIS wavelength range for improved cloud screening and polar stratospheric cloud detection, and comparisons after volcanic eruptions and with the CALIPSO-GOCCP product show promising results. The version 7 product shows comparable agreement with version 5.07 when compared to coincident SAGE II and SAGE III measurements, and improved agreement with CALIPSO time series. The algorithm has been applied to the complete set of OSIRIS measurements, and the new data set is now publicly available.
