Scientific paper

A balloon-borne far infrared spectrometer for the investigation of extended sources in the wavelength range 80 to 500 microns was flown in 1980 and 1982 from Texas. During both campaigns periodicities of many minutes were detected in the IR gradients. In 1982 clear evidence for the existence of large scale stratospheric emission exhibiting weak azimuthal gradients, but strong elevational gradients was found. The large angle scanning technique enables the spatial extent and variability of the stratospheric phenomena, which may be linked to the El Chichon, Mexico, volcanic eruption in April 1982 to be investigated.
