Scientific paper

The stratospheric distribution of H2(O-18) in the 22 to 37 km altitude range has been obtained from balloon-based measurement of far infrared thermal emission spectra with an unapodized spectral resolution of 0.0033/cm. The analysis is based on the observed spectra of 9 isolated spectral lines in the 46 to 72/cm region obtained from four complete limb sequences. Comparison of the results with the statistically expected values indicates enhancement in the H2(O-18) concentrations increasing from 27 + or - 14 percent at 29 km to 40 + or - 23 percent at 37 km. No significant enhancement at lower altitudes was observed.
