Abstract
A correlation spectrometer for the remote sensing of SO2 and NO2 gas burdens in the atmosphere has been developed. The instrument, utilizing natural skylight as its light source, is interfaced to a minicomputer operating in a real time system that controls the scanning monochromator and the data acquisition on disk memory. The main advantage of this approach is that baseline shifts due to spectral variation of the skylight can be eliminated computationally.Keywords
