Scientific paper

Middle and upper stratospheric HCN has been measured using ground-based mm-wave emission spectroscopy during a series of observations made in Mauna Kea, HI, in June 1986. A volume mixing ratio of 190 + or - 40 pptv at about 40 km, and a decrease of concentration with altitude that is considerably slower than that predicted by current models are found. This could be an indication of an atmospheric source of HCN as yet unidentified.
