Tropospheric BrO column densities in the Arctic derived from satellite: retrieval and comparison to ground-based measurements

During polar spring, halogen radicals like bromine monoxide (BrO) play an important role in the chemistry of tropospheric ozone destruction. Satellite measurements of the BrO distribution have become a particularly useful tool to investigate this probably natural phenomenon, but the separation o...
