Ground level detection and feasibility for monitoring of several trace atmospheric constituents by high resolution infrared spectroscopy. Geophysical Research Letters 3: doi: 10.1029/GL003i007p00387. issn: 0094-8276.

Ground-based infrared solar spectra at an unapodized resolution of 0.06 cm-1 are presented showing the detection of HNO3, CF2Cl2 and CFCl3 in the atmosphere and demonstrating the feasibility of ground monitoring of these species. Similar data indicate that higher resolution and/or a high altitude site are required for detection and monitoring of NO and HCl from the ground. Calculations show that it may be possible to monitor NO2 from a high mountain station using this method.
