Measurements taken at an altitude of 370 m in New Zealand are used to characterize the long term variability of midlatitude stratospheric NO2. Spectra were obtained at sunrise and sunset by a scanning monochromator during the period December 1980-May 1982. The long-path absorption spectroscopy revealed column abundances similar to those in the Northern Hemisphere. Evening abundances displayed a seasonal variation from 3.2 x 10 to the 15th mol/sq cm to 6.4 x 10 to the 15th mol/sq cm. Morning abundances ranged from 2 x 10 to the 15th mol/sq cm to 4.5 x 10 to the 15th mol/sq cm. The altitude scan of the measurements was 20-30 km. Further experiments from a base in Antarctica will be performed during the summer of 1982-83.
