Abstract:
The SAGE III Ozone Loss and Validation Experiment (SOLVE II) is a
measurement campaign designed to examine the processes controlling
ozone levels at mid- to high latitudes. Measurements will be made in
the Arctic high-latitude region in winter using the NASA DC-8
aircraft, as well as balloon platforms and ground-based
instruments. The mission will also acquire
... correlative data needed to
validate the Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment (SAGE) III
satellite measurements that will be used to quantitatively assess
high-latitude ozone loss. SOLVE is co-sponsored by the Upper
Atmosphere Research Program (UARP), Atmospheric Effects of Aviation
Project (AEAP), Atmospheric Chemistry Modeling and Analysis Program
(ACMAP), and Earth Observing System (EOS) of NASA's Earth Science
Enterprise (ESE) as part of the validation program for the SAGE III
instrument. The SOLVE II mission will be conducted from Kiruna,
Sweden.
Some of the SOLVE II Quick-Look data include:
- ozone Lidar measurements.
- POAM III daily ozone, NO2, and water vapor contours
- POAM III polar stratospheric cloud (PSC) data, and daily polar vortex
plots
- Airborne DIAL data
- Stratospheric aerosol lidar measurements at Nyalesund, Sweeden
