“…Ground-based measurements by lidars (e.g., Hauchecorne and Chanin, 1980), provide very good accuracy but are present only over a few locations over land. Similarly, rocket (e.g., Clark and McCoy, 1965) and balloon (e.g., Rinsland et al, 1983) observations are also very sparse in space and time, although they provide the most accurate measurements. In addition, experiments from these platforms are very expensive.…”

“…The nine error sources investigated and their relative importance are given inTable 1. Except as noted below, the magnitude of each parameter has been changed by an amount equal to its estimated 1 o-uncertainty, and the modified value has been assumed in retrievals performed on synthetic spectra generated with the unperturbed values.We have assumed that the perturbed parameters are independent of each other and that the errors have a normal distribution (see, for example,Rinsland et al [1983],, andZander et al [1994b] for similar error studies). Therefore the total random and systematic uncertainties in the CIONO 2 column correspond to root-sum-squares of the individual random and systematic errors, respectively.…”
