The Russian high-altitude aircraft M-55 Geophysica has been deployed in several missions to obtain correlative measurements for the geophyscial validation of the ENVISAT chemistry instruments MIPAS, SCIAMACHY and GOMOS. The payload of the Geophysica for the measurements of trace species was a unique combination of remote-sensing and in-situ instruments, enabling extensive Geophysica-internal intercomparisons. The correlative measurements were guided by forecasts of meteorological parameters (high-cloud coverage and gradients in the distributions of the atmospheric parameters) and by the expected time and location of the ENVISAT measurements. This paper gives an overview of the chemistry payload of the Geophysica, the deployments made at middle and high latitudes, the ciritera for flight planning and the expected correlative data for ENVISAT validation.
