Description
Summary:KSR-II, a two-stage sounding rocket of KARI was launched successfully at the west coast of the Korean Peninsula at 1000LST, June 11, 1998. For the ozone measurement mission, 8-channel UV and visible radiometers were onboard the rocket. The rocket measured the first in situ stratospheric and mesospheric ozone density profile over Korea during its ascending phase using the radiometer. Comparisons with Dobson spectrophotometer, ozonesonde, and HALOE onboard the UARS are shown together. Our results are in reasonable agreements with others.
