hno3 Profiles and Spectrum

Modified: 13-FEB-02 VP


The plot below shows five standard hno3 profiles, up to 50km.

hno3 profiles

This next plot shows simulated limb emission spectra for hno3, at three different tangent heights. The black spectrum is for a tangent height of 10km, the green for 20km, and the blue for 30km. The dotted red lines represent the noise levels in each of the five MIPAS bands.
