Comparison of Some CLAES Mixing Ratio Profiles with Correlative Balloon Borne Measurements

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

On 24 July, 1992 and 7 April, 1993, the University of Denver conducted two balloon flights designed to obtain correlative measurements for comparison with the CLAES (Cryogenic Limb Array Etalon Spectrometer) instrument aboard the UARS satellite. These flights were performed using our very high resolution (~0.002 cm-1) Fourier transform interferometer-spectrometer operated in solar occultation mode. We present here the results of this intercomparison for several of the trace species which can be measured with both instruments.
