Abstract
The Stratospheric Wind Infrared Limb Sounder (SWIRLS), which measures wind, temperature, and the abundance of O3 and N2O in the stratosphere from earth orbit is selected as one of the complement of atmospheric sounders that will fly on the Earth Observing System B platform series. This paper outlines the SWIRLS investigation and describes laboratory experiments demonstrating SWIRLS wind measurement capabilities.
