Abstract :
Continuous measurements of solar absorption spectra with a ground-based high-resolution Bomem DA8 Fourier-Transform InfraRed (FTIR) spectrometer were started in Toronto, Canada, in October 2001. These measurements aim to cover the gap in ground-based FTIR data in southern Canada. Column amounts of atmospheric tracers derived from spectra measured during fall 2001 are presented.
