First detection of ammonia (NH<sub>3</sub>) in the Asian summer monsoon upper troposphere

First detection of ammonia (NH<sub>3</sub>) in the Asian summer monsoon upper troposphere

Ammonia (NH<sub>3</sub>) has been detected in the upper troposphere by the analysis of averaged MIPAS (Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding) infrared limb-emission spectra. We have found enhanced amounts of NH<sub>3</sub> within the region of the Asian...
