SAOZ spectrometer V-1024 in Salekhard, western Siberia
The SAOZ (Systeme d’Analyse par Observation Zenitale) is UV-visible (300-650 nm) diode array spectrometer developed at the Service d’Aeronomie, CNRS, France for monitoring stratospheric ozone and NO2. Zenith sky measurements of atmospheric gases at twilight are used. There are 15 SAOZ instruments in the SAOZ network around the world. Two instruments are located at the Arctic Circle in Russia at Zhigansk since 1992 and Salekhard since 1998. The accuracy of total ozone measurement is 6% and 10% for nitrogen dioxide observations.
