During the 1983 MAP/GLOBUS campaign at Aire sur l'Adour, France, an intercomparison of two balloon-borne chemiluminescent NO detectors was carried out. Stratospheric NO profiles measured simultaneously by the NO sonde of the Institute of Atmospherics of Nagoya University and the NO/NO2 sonde developed at the Max-Planck-Institut fuer Aeronomie (MPAE) are reported. Above 20 mb (about 26 km), both data sets show very good agreement, with daylight NO mixing ratios increasing from 1.5 ppbV at 26 km to 9 ppbV at 33 km altitude, with only small diurnal variations observed for solar zenith angles of less than 57 deg. Some preliminary NO2 data measured by the MPAE instrument by diverting the air flow through a hot metal converter are also presented. The results are compared with predictions from a diurnal variation model.
