Simultaneous measurements from aircraft of stratospheric NO2 columns using both the 1605/cm and 2915/cm regions are presented, and improved nu1 + nu3 NO2 line parameters from an updated version of those contained in the AFGL 1982 trace gas compilation are used to derive stratospheric column amounts above 12 km for a number of latitudes in April 1985. Good agreement is found between the amounts derived from both NO2 bands, and though the variability of the 2915/cm measurements at 70 deg N is much larger than at other altitudes, the standard deviation of the 1605/cm measurements is much smaller. The accuracy of the line parameters for these bands are demonstrated.
