TLDR
A major intercomparison of balloon-borne stratospheric sensors took place in fall 1982 and spring 1983 as discussed by the authors, where 4 gondolas were launched close together from Palestine, Texas.Abstract:
Major intercomparisons of balloon-borne stratospheric sensors took place in fall 1982 and spring 1983. In each campaign, 4 gondolas were launched close together from Palestine, Texas. Profiles of many constituents were determined by a variety of instruments, both radiometric and spectrometric, some observing the sun and some sensing atmospheric emission. Column amounts of some constituents were determined by supporting spectroscopic measurements from the ground and from aircraft.read more

Simultaneous measurements of stratospheric NO and NO2 and their comparison with model predictions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the results of the last four flights of the Oxford radiometer with predictions by a diurnal photochemical model and confirmed the rapid sunrise and sunset changes predicted by the model and detected on previous flights.

TL;DR: In this article, a new system for NO2 detection on the NASA ER-2 aircraft was developed for using on-board chemiluminescence detector, which converted NO2 to NO using UV photolysis with the NO product subsequently detected with an onboard detector.

TL;DR: The Middle Atmosphere Nitrogen TRend Assessment (MANTRA) series of high-altitude balloon flights is being undertaken to investigate changes in the concentrations of northern hemisphere mid-latitude stratospheric ozone, and of nitrogen and chlorine compounds that play a role in ozone chemistry as mentioned in this paper.

Measurements of solar occultation - The error in a naive retrieval if the constituent's concentration changes
Howard K. Roscoe,John A. Pyle +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors calculated the error for the vertical profiles of NO, NO2, OH and ClO from in-situ measurements alone, without appealing to a model of stratospheric photochemistry.
