The EUropean organisation for the exploitation of METeorological SATellites (EUMETSAT) recently released a reprocessed homogeneous radiance record for the whole IASI observation period, from which thirteen years (2008-2020) of temperature profiles can be obtained. In this work, atmospheric temperatures at different altitudes are retrieved from IASI radiances measured in the carbon dioxide absorption bands (654-800 cm-1 and 2250-2400 cm-1) by selecting the channels that are the most sensitive to the temperature at different altitudes. We rely on an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to retrieve atmospheric temperatures from a selected set of IASI radiances. We trained the ANN with IASI radiances as input and the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) reanalysis version 5 (ERA5) as output. The retrieved temperatureswere validated with ERA5, with in situ radiosonde temperatures from the Analysed RadioSoundings Archive (ARSA)network and with EUMETSAT temperatures retrieved fromIASI radiances using a different method. Between 750 and7 hPa, where IASI is most sensitive to temperature, a goodagreement is observed between the three datasets: the differences between IASI on one hand and ERA5, ARSA, orEUMETSAT on the other hand are usually less than 0.5 Kat these altitudes. At 2 hPa, as the IASI sensitivity decreases,we found differences up to 2 K between IASI and the threevalidation datasets. We then computed atmospheric temperature linear trends from atmospheric temperatures between750 and 2 hPa. We found that in the past 13 years, there is ageneral warming trend of the troposphere that is more important at the poles and at mid-latitudes (0.5 K/decade at mid-latitudes, 1 K/decade at the North Pole). The stratosphereis globally cooling on average, except at the South Pole asa result of the ozone layer recovery and a sudden stratospheric warming in 2019. The cooling is most pronounced inthe equatorial upper stratosphere (−1 K/decade). This workshows that ANN can be a powerful and simple tool to retrieveIASI temperatures at different altitudes in the upper troposphere and in the stratosphere, allowing us to construct a homogeneous and consistent temperature data record adaptedto trend analysis. %G English %2 https://insu.hal.science/insu-03407369v2/document %2 https://insu.hal.science/insu-03407369v2/file/amt-15-1779-2022.pdf %L insu-03407369 %U https://insu.hal.science/insu-03407369 %~ OBSPM %~ INSU %~ X %~ ENS-PARIS %~ ENPC %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-CERGY %~ LERMA %~ X-LMD %~ X-DEP %~ X-DEP-MECA %~ PARISTECH %~ LATMOS %~ LMD %~ ENPC-LMD %~ UVSQ %~ PSL %~ UNIV-PARIS-SACLAY %~ SORBONNE-UNIVERSITE %~ SORBONNE-UNIV %~ SU-SCIENCES %~ IP_PARIS %~ IP_PARIS_COPIE %~ ENS-PSL %~ OBSPM-PSL %~ UVSQ-UPSACLAY %~ SU-TI %~ GS-ENGINEERING %~ GS-GEOSCIENCES %~ GS-PHYSIQUE %~ INSTITUT-SCIENCES-LUMIERE %~ ALLIANCE-SU
