| Abstract | The authors report on the installation of a DOAS system as part of the CARIBIC project instrument container and present some first measurement results. The instruments are operated once a month onboard a passenger aircraft on long-distance flights and provide valuable observations of atmospheric trace gases. The integration on a passenger aircraft yields new possibilities regarding continuity, wide regional coverage, and trace gas measurements in the tropopause region. Measurements during takeoff and landing give indications on trace gas profiles. In principle, observations are possible in three different viewing directions. Some previous problems in two viewing directions are discussed and have been solved now so that in future the analysis of multi-axis measurements should be possible on a regular basis. The paper gives a well understandable explanation of the technical installation of the measurement sys- |
