Nitric oxide profiles obtained from three flights of chemiluminescent instruments during the Globus '85 campaign held in France in the autumn of 1985 are reported. When the profile obtained in the early morning of 20 September is compared with the flight made the previous afternoon, an average morning to midday NO ratio of 0.7 for the region between 26 and 33 km is obtained. This value is in good agreement with theoretical studies involving the photolysis of N205 and the establishment of the NO2-NO equilibrium.

“…The modifications are described in Fabian et al (1987). The total random error for this system, taking into account the errors in the estimation of the mass flow rates, photon count rates and the calibration procedures, amounts to _+ 12% with an additional 5% systematic error due to the uncertainty in the calibration mixture.…”

“…The remaining balloon measurements used the in-situ chemiluminescent method. The instrumentation used by these two groups was similar and had been compared in a flight on 20 September 1983 (Fabian et al, 1987). The intercomparison showed that the instruments agreed to within _+4% above 26 kin, but below this level there were systematic differences.…”

Intercomparison of NO column measurements during MAP/GLOBUS 1985

Column measurements of nitric oxide were made using several techniques during the MAP/GLOBUS campaign in France in September 1985. The data sets are nearly co-located and simultaneous, therefore allowing a valid intercomparison of the various measurement methods. The range of altitudes sampled differs from instrument to instrument. This complicates the comparison because the data sets are to some extent complementary. The NO distributions apparently vary significantly from day to day, and possibly over shorter timescales. Changes in dynamics may be responsible for these variations. The results from the instruments which measure in the infrared and the ultraviolet are self-consistent, and show good agreement with photochemical predictions. On 19 September, when the intercomparison was made, the profile measured by the in-situ chemiluminescent instrument differed significantly from the predicted profile, and the measured columns were generally higher.
