Abstract

The Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) has provided measurements of O 3, H 2O, ClO, SO 2, HNO 3, temperature and pressure in Earth's atmosphere. These measurements, which have been used for a variety of scientific studies, are obtained near-globally both day and night, and are made reliably even in the presence of aerosols, cirrus or polar stratospheric clouds. MLS experiments now being developed for the NASA Earth Observing System (EOS) and the future use new technology for measurements of additional trace species and improved global coverage.
