Description
Summary:The Cryogenic Limb Etalon Array Spectrometer (CLAES) aboard the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) has made global observations of stratospheric aerosol during 1992. The instrument and measurement technique are briefly discussed. Samples of CLAES aerosol observations for south-looking days through the course of the Antarctic winter showing evolution of polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs) and the Pinatubo volcanic veil are shown and discussed.
