Abstract Transmittance functions as well as inversion algorithms have been developed for deriving H2O profiles from radiometer measurements. These computer programs have been applied to evaluate own stratospheric balloon occultation measurements and LIMS (Limb Infrared Monitor of the Stratosphere) radiance measurements in the H2O channel. The results are compared with the H2O profiles in the LIMS data archive. The differences between corresponding H2O profiles are discussed in dependence of altitude and latitude.
