Murrcray, D.G., Goldman, A., Williams, W.J., Murcray, F.H., Bonomo, F.S., Bradford, C.M., Cook, G.R., Hanst, P.L. and Molina, M.J. (1977). Upper Limit for Stratospheric ClONO₂ from Balloon-Borne Infrared Measurements. Geophysical Research Letters 4: doi: 10.1029/GL004i006p00227. issn: 0094-8276.

Balloon-borne infrared sunset solar spectra in the 780 cm-1 region have been used to derive upper limits for the amount of ClONO2 in the stratosphere. These upper limits for the volume mixing ratio are 4¿10-11 to 2¿10-9 between 15 and 30 km with an error factor of 2. These values only show that the postulate that ClONO2 is a temporary reservoir for ClO and NO2 cannot be ruled out.
