Conclusions & Outlook • Development of limb UV analysis of BrO, NO2 and O3 • Polarisation sensitivity complicates DOAS fit • Broad spectral range (337 – 357 nm) seems to give most reliable (stable) results • Dependence on altitude & latitude seems to be reasonable • Determination of absolute SCDs (choice of Fraunh. reference) • Further trace gases (OClO) and wavelength ranges (vis) • Application of radiative transport and profile inversion Bremen Limb Workshop thomas.wagner@iup.uni-heidelberg.de Satellite group http://giger.uni-heidelberg.de
