AbstractThe HALOE experiment has observed vertical profiles and pressure versus latitude cross sections of temperature HCℓ, HF, CH4, H2O, NO, NO2, O3, and aerosols over the range from 80°S to 80°N. An inorbit precision of better than 0.3 ppbv has been demonstrated for HCℓ, HF, NO, NO2 and < 0.6 ppmv for the other channels. Comparisons with correlative measurements at this early stage are encouraging. Nitric oxide has been observed over the range from the upper troposphere to 130-km. Latitudinal cross sections of the long-lived tracers CH4 and HF show clear indications of the effect of the general circulation.
