Direct estimation of the rate constant of the reaction ClO + HO<sub>2</sub> → HOCl + O<sub>2</sub> from SMILES atmospheric observations

Diurnal variations of ClO, HO<sub>2</sub>, and HOCl were simultaneously observed by the Superconducting Submillimeter-Wave Limb-Emission Sounder (SMILES) between 12 October 2009 and 21 April 2010. These were the first global observations of the diurnal variation of HOCl in the upper atmo...
