The hydroxyl airglow (6-2) band has been monitored above Davis station, Antarctica (68.6°S, 78.0°E) by means of a Czerny-Turner spectrometer since 1990. This thesis is an investigation of the long-term trends and variability in OH(6-2) rotational-temperatures over an 11 year time span. Tropospheric...
