Summary
Abstract: The Polar Ozone and Aerosol Measurement II (POAM II) instrument was developed
by the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) to measure the vertical distribution of
atmospheric ozone, water vapor, nitrogen dioxide, aerosol extinction, and
temperature. POAM II measures solar extinction in nine narrow band channels,
covering the spectral range from approximately 350 to 1060 nm. POAM II was
launched aboard ... View entire text
