Stratospheric ClO and O 3 vertical profiles were measured at 32° N in May 1985 and October 1986. The ClO profiles and diurnal variation are in general agreement with theory, but have somewhat less midday ClO near 34 km. Measured 35‐45 km O 3 is larger than theory and no stratospheric O 3 diurnal variation was observed, as expected. HNO 3 was detected, and an H 2 O 2 upper limit obtained.
