SAOZ is a small remote sensing instrument looking at solar occultation during the ascent of the balloon and during sunset (or sunrise) from floating altitude. It is a UV-visible spectrometer measuring O3 and NO2 and in its enhanced UV version, BrO. The vertical profiles, retrieved by onion peeling, have a typical vertical resolution of 1.5 km. Since the launch of ODIN in 2001 seventeen SAOZ balloon flights have been performed at various latitudes and seasons: a - nine flights at mid-latitudes in summer and autumn from southern France (43°N) within the BALODIN/CNES and ESABC programs and from Vanscoy (52°N) in Saskatchevan within the MANTRA 2002 and MANTRA 2004 Canadian campaigns; b - four flights in the Arctic from Kiruna in Sweden (67°N) in winter, inside and outside the polar vortex as well as in summer; c - and finally four flights in the tropics from Bauru in Brasil (22°S) in summer within the pre-HIBISCUS and HIBISCUS/VINTERSOL EU project. Comparison with coincident OSIRIS/ODIN, SCIAMACHY/ENVISAT and GOMOS/ENVISAT ozone, NO2 and BrO profiles are presented.
