Abstract :
GOMOS on board ENVISAT is the first stellar occultation spectrometer providing vertical profile of ozone and minor species from the upper troposphere to the mesosphere on a regular basis. First results indicate that GOMOS reach its expected accuracy after improvements of data processing.
