Zhou, D.K., Bingham, G.E., Anderson, G.P. and Nadile, R.M. (1998). CIRRIS-1A measurements of stratospheric carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄) and carbon tetrafluoride (CF₄). Geophysical Research Letters 25: doi: 10.1029/97GL03763. issn: 0094-8276.

Stratospheric infrared spectral measurements were made by the Cryogenic Infrared Radiance Instrumentation for Shuttle (CIRRIS-1A) during the Space Transportation System 39 mission (28 April to 6 May 1991). The moderate-resolution (1.0 cm-1) spectra from the CIRRIS-1A measurements reveal infrared emissions from the stratospheric gases of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and carbon tetrafluoride (CF4). Volume-mixing ratios of these gases were retrieved using FASCOD3 with the HITRAN96 database as a forward model. These volume-mixing ratios are compared with other measurements. ¿ 1998 American Geophysical Union
