Characterization of polar stratospheric cloud (PSC) using ground-based Fourier-transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) at Syowa Station, Antarctica
Polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs) play an important role in ozone destruction via the occurrence of heterogeneous reactions on their surface that convert reservoir species of active chlorine and bromine (e.g., HCl, ClONO_2, HBr, or BrONO_2) into active Cl_2 or Br_2. However, a lack of direct measure...
