A small cryogenically cooled spectrometer system designed to obtain atmospheric emission spectra in the 7.5µm to 13.0µm region was flown piggyback on 9 balloon flights from ESRANGE (67.9° N, 21.1° E) during the EASOE campaign. Initial analysis of the spectra obtained has been concentrated on obtaining HNO 3 profiles for the various flights. HNO 3 profiles for 17 December 1991, 9 January 1992, 22 January 1992, 5 February 1992 and 14 March 1992 are presented.
