Ground-based photometers monitored the zenith radiance of 1270 and 694 nm emissions during the total solar eclipse of Feb. 16, 1980, in an attempt to measure the O2(1 Delta g) and OH(7,2) dayglow radiance bands. The altitude distribution of 1270 nm intensity was derived, and then converted into ozone distributions by means of the rate equations for formation and loss of ozone and O2(1 Delta g) molecules. In addition to indicating an increase in ozone concentration at mid-eclipse, results show that the OH(7,2) emission was not enhanced during eclipse totality, suggesting that there was no OH concentration increase during the eclipse.
