Abstract
The most recent in the series of STRATOPROBE balloon flights were conducted in the Spring of 1985 from the National Scientific Balloon Facility in Texas. Altitude distributions of HCl and CH 4 were derived and compared with our results from flights in previous years. The HCl and CH 4 column integrated amounts show a trend towards higher concentrations, not inconsistent with other measurements and model calculations. The CH 4 was determined from emission spectra using a scanning radiometer as well as from absorption lines in the HCl spectral region recorded with the interferometer. There is good agreement between the two techniques and with a model simulation.
