The vertical distribution of three minor atmospheric constituents (O3, N2O, HNO3) has been obtained from far infrared limb thermal emission in the 22-24 cm-1 spectral region. Measurement were made with a high resolution interferometer on a balloon payload launched on July 29, 2002 from Trapani (Sicily). Several limb scan sequences have been analysed and the resulting profiles have been compared to those measured by the MIPAS instrument flown on the ENVISAT satellite. An extra result, not required by the validation, has been the measurement of ClO vertical profile.

Abstract

The vertical distribution of three minor atmospheric constituents (O3, N2O, HNO3) has been obtained from far infrared limb thermal emission in the 22-24 cm-1 spectral region. Measurement were made with a high resolution interferometer on a balloon payload launched on July 29, 2002 from Trapani (Sicily). Several limb scan sequences have been analysed and the resulting profiles have been compared to those measured by the MIPAS instrument flown on the ENVISAT satellite. An extra result, not required by the validation, has been the measurement of ClO vertical profile.
