Within this ENVISAT validation project [AO-191] ground-based measurements of different techniques have been performed at Kiruna in the Arctic and on Tenerife Island in the subtropics. These ground-based data were used to validate column amounts derived from SCIAMACHY as well as profiles from MIPAS....
