Description based upon print version of record.. - Introduction; Atmospheric Chemistry; Interaction of Molecules with Radiation; Radiation Transport in the Atmosphere; Measurement Techniques for Atmospheric Trace Gas Concentrations and Other Parameters; Differential Absorption Spectroscopy; The Design of DOAS Instruments; Evaluation of DOAS Spectra, Sensitivity and Detection Limits; Scattered-light DOAS Measurements; Sample Application of 'Active' DOAS with Artificial Light Sources; Sample Application of 'Passive' DOAS; DOAS: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow; Literature. - Measurement techniques form the basis of our knowledge about atmospheric composition and chemistry. Presently, important questions of atmospheric chemistry center on urban pollution, free-radical chemistry, degradation of greenhouse gases and the budgets of tropospheric and stratospheric ozone. Among the many different optical spectroscopic methods that are in use, DOAS has emerged as a universal technique to measure the concentrations of atmospheric trace gases by making use of the characteristic absorption features of gas molecules along a path of known length in the open atmosphere.
