Spectroscopic measurements in the earth's atmosphere are discussed in relation to laboratory experiments. The study shows how measurements of the ratios of trace species are used to test the understanding of specific parts of atmospheric chemistry. Consideration is given to the oxygen nightglow which is emitted strongly at altitudes between 80 and 110 km, to a comparison of ozone measurements with calculated ozone profiles, and to the correlation between the mixing ratios of H2O and O3. Although it is desirable for the accuracy of the measurements of trace species in the atmosphere to approach that of laboratory determinations of their rates of reaction, many of the uncertainties in atmospheric chemistry, particularly the source strengths and sink rates for trace species, can be reduced by less precise measurements.
