The current budget of NOy above the Jungfraujoch as derived from IR solar observations

This paper reports on an investigations of a series of compounds of the NOy family, based on high resolution infrared solar observations made at the ISSJ (International Scientific Station of the Jungfraujoch), Switzerland (46.55ºN, 7.99ºE, 3580 m a.s.l.). These observations are part of a long-term monitoring effort undertaken by the Liège group since the mid-1970s, and integrated more recently as a contribution to the Network for the Detection of Stratospheric Change (NDSC). Currently, vertical column abundances of over 20 molecules are retrieved from solar spectra recorded under clear sky conditions as regularly as possible, using two high resolution Fourier transform infrared (2 to 15 microns) spectrometers
