Abstract: The article presents a study on the validation of Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment (ACE) and Optical Spectrograph and Infra-Red Imager System (OSIRIS) ozone and nitrous oxide (NO<subscript>2</subscript>) measurements through ground-based instruments. The study compares GBS differential optical absorption spectroscopy (DOAS) instruments, SAOZ DOAS instruments, among others. It concludes that these are useful in acquiring datasets at the Canada-based Polar Environment Atmospheric Research Laboratory (PEARL).
