Conclusions & Outlook

• Development of limb UV analysis of BrO, NO2 and O3

• Polarisation sensitivity complicates DOAS fit

• Broad spectral range (337 – 357 nm) seems to give

most reliable (stable) results

• Dependence on altitude & latitude seems to be reasonable

• Determination of absolute SCDs (choice of Fraunh. reference)

• Further trace gases (OClO) and wavelength ranges (vis)

• Application of radiative transport and profile inversion
