New measurements of stratospheric chlorine monoxide (ClO) were made at McMurdo Station, Antarctica, during the austral spring of 1987. Rotational emission line spectroscopy, employing a ground-based detector, was used to determine mixing ratio profiles over the range about 17-45 km. A spectral band...
