The Cryogenic Limb Array Etalon Spectrometer (CLAES) experiment measures temperature profiles, and concentrations of ozone, methane, water vapor, nitrogen oxides, and other important species, including CFCs, in the stratosphere. CLAES also maps the horizontal and vertical distributions of aerosols in the stratosphere. These measurements are analyzed to better understand the photochemical, radiative, and dynamical processes taking place in the ozone layer. |
