SAGE II

Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment
Data access

The SAGE II instrument was developed by NASA to provide the scientific community with a global and long-term description of the distribution of aerosols, ozone, water vapour and NO2. It thus provides a unique and crucial database to improve our understanding of global, seasonal and interannual climate variability and, in particular, stratospheric ozone trends. This instrument was installed on the Earth Radiation Budget Satellite (ERBS) which was launched in October 1984 and ceased operation in August 2005.
