Spectroscopic evidence of large aspherical <i>β</i>-NAT particles involved in denitrification in the December 2011 Arctic stratosphere

We analyze polar stratospheric cloud (PSC) signatures in airborne MIPAS-STR (Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding – STRatospheric aircraft) observations in the spectral regions from 725 to 990 and 1150 to 1350 cm<sup>−1</sup> under conditions suitable for the exis...
