Remote sensing of some greenhouse gases by Fourier-spectrometry in Kyiv

The values of the total N2O and O3 amount (column amounts) in the atmosphere above Kyiv city were determined using observed IR spectra of direct solar radiation. The modelling of N2O and O3 spectra was carried out with MODTRAN3 (MODTRAN Report 01/11/96, The MODTRAN 2/3 Report and LOWTRAN 7 MODEL, Ph...

Description
Summary:	The values of the total N2O and O3 amount (column amounts) in the atmosphere above Kyiv city were determined using observed IR spectra of direct solar radiation. The modelling of N2O and O3 spectra was carried out with MODTRAN3 (MODTRAN Report 01/11/96, The MODTRAN 2/3 Report and LOWTRAN 7 MODEL, Phillips Laboratory, Geophysics Directorate PL/G POS, 1996) program by scaling the species profiles of standard mid-latitude summer model atmosphere. The comparison with the data of other ground based and space experiments shows the good agreement. The accuracy of the experiment is enough for greenhouse gases monitoring in the observational point.
