Detection of nitric acid and nitric oxides in the terrestrial atmosphere in the middle-infrared spectral region
A proposal for combined space and ground-based observations of the vertical distributions and the column densities of nitric acid and nitric oxide concentrations in the earth's atmosphere is discussed. We focus on the aspects that are particular to the idea of correlative measurements: geom...

A proposal for combined space and
ground-based observations of the vertical distributions and the column densities
of nitric acid and nitric oxide concentrations in the earth's atmosphere is
discussed. We focus on the aspects that are particular to the idea of
correlative measurements: geometrical considerations, simulations of the solar
absorption spectra in the middle-infrared region corresponding to the different
observational geometries, and the associated retrieval methods. These studies
are done specifically for the Belgian-French experiment MIRAS (MIR Infrared
Atmospheric Spectrometer) onboard the Russian Space Station MIR and correlative
ground-based FTIR measurements in the Tatra mountains. |
