Summary
Abstract: Instrument History:

Since 1989, France leads a monitoring program on human impacts on the Antarctic polar stratosphere. A set of instruments designed to measure ozone and parameters linked to its chemical equilibrium, were implemented on the French Antarctic base, Dumont d'Urville. The French Polar Institute (IPEV, Institut Polaire Français Paul-Emile Victor) supplies recurrent funding and ... View entire text

Quality Expected precision / Accuracy of the instrument:

A study of error sources for aerosols lidar on Observatory of Haute-Provence and Dumont d'Urville is provided in Chazette et al. (1995). No specific evaluation was performed since the new system implementation. Meanwhile, we expect an uncertainty on backscattering coefficient not exceeding 15% (for low aerosols content).
