Measurement of stratospheric HBr using high resolution far infrared spectroscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
Far infrared spectral features of HBr have been observed in the stratospheric emission spectrum using a balloon borne high resolution Fourier transform spectrometer equipped with a high sensitivity detector specially designed for this purpose. The value of 1.6 + 0.6 parts per trillion in volume for the HBr mixing ratio has been retrieved, from the global-fit analysis of 12! spectra, in the 25 36.5 km altitude range. The result is briefly compared with models and previous assessments.

Stratospheric HBr concentration profile obtained from farinfrared emission spectroscopy
Hydrogen bromide (HBr) is the principal bromine sink species for the ozone loss chemistry induced by brominecontaining ases in the stratosphere. We report a 1994 balloon-based measurement of the daytime stratospherie HBr profile between 20 and 36.5 km altitude. The average concentration result of 1.31 + 0.39 parts per trillion in volume (pptv) and an analysis for the concentration versus altitu...
متن کاملDirect retrieval of stratospheric CO2 infrared cooling rate profiles from AIRS data
[1] We expand upon methods for retrieving thermal infrared cooling rate profiles, originally developed by Liou and Xue (1988) through application to the inversion of the stratospheric cooling rate produced by carbon dioxide (CO2) and a formal description of the associated error budget. Specifically, we infer lowerand mid-stratospheric cooling rates from the CO2 n2 band on the basis of selected ...

متن کاملDetermining Optimal Feature-Combination for LDA Classification of Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Signals in Brain-Computer Interface Application
In this study, we determine the optimal feature-combination for classification of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) signals with the best accuracies for development of a two-class brain-computer interface (BCI). Using a multi-channel continuous-wave imaging system, mental arithmetic signals are acquired from the prefrontal cortex of seven healthy subjects. After removing physiologic...

The gas phase vibrational spectroscopy of Br•~HBr!1,2,3 clusters has been studied between 6 and 16 mm ~625 and 1700 cm! by multiphoton infrared photodissociation spectroscopy using the output of the free electron laser for infrared experiments. Infrared ~IR! spectra were recorded by monitoring the mass-selected ion yield. In all three systems neutral HBr loss is found to be the dominant photofr...
