Barbe, A., Marché, P., Secroun, C. and Jouve, P. (1979). Measurements of tropospheric and stratospheric H₂CO by an infrared high resolution technique. Geophysical Research Letters 6: doi: 10.1029/GL006i006p00463. issn: 0094-8276.

Formaldehyde, H2CO, has been detected in the atmosphere at 2807 and 2869 cm-1 using high resolution infrared absorption spectroscopy from a ground based station. An order of magnitude measure of the column concentration (5¿1015 molecules per cm2) is given, and an estimate of the trospospheric and stratospheric concentrations is derived from the line pressure broadening.
