The Halogen Occultation Experiment (HALOE) has been operating on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite without flaw since it was first turned on October 11, 1991. The experiment uses the broadband and gas filter radiometry instrument techniques and the solar occultation experiment approach to measure vertical profiles of temperature, HCl, HF, O3, NO, NO2, CH4, H2O and aerosols from the upper troposphere in some cases (i.e. H2O, CH4, and O3) to the lower thermosphere for other parameters (e.g. NO). The experiment has operated for over nine years at this point and has provided extensive data during spring and summer in the 50 to 75 degree latitude range in both hemispheres where PMCs form. We report in this paper on studies of long-term changes in mesospheric water vapor which is a key parameter in the PMC microphysics. Sampling, signal-to-noise and solar effects are especially important considerations in this high altitude and latitude region. We will describe the analysis approach and discuss long-term changes implied in the data set.
