Summary
Abstract: Slant column densities of stratospheric nitrogen dioxide (NO2) determined from spectroscopic measurements of zenith scattered twilight at wavelengths from 430-485 nanometres.

These data are provided by the NDACC (Network for the Detection of Atmospheric Composition Change) on an annual basis and then stored at the AADC. Only data that are two years old are made available.
