Abstract
The Ozone Layer Monitoring Experiment (OLME) on board the FASAT-Bravo microsatellite, launched in July 1998, observed backscattered UV to retrieve total atmospheric ozone concentrations using two instruments: the Ozone Ultraviolet Backscatter Imager (OUBI) and Ozone Mapping Detector (OMAD). Initial results from this experiment have shown good qualitative agreement with NASA’s Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) cite ch09:bib01. Recent studies on OMAD and TOMS data found quantitative agreement in the radiances and indicated the detection of the volcanic eruption plume of Nyamuragira volcano (due to its sulphur dioxide content)[2].
