                        The Global Ozone Monitoring Radiometer (GOMR) planned for the Polar Platform is conceived as two elements: a Nadir Sounder (GNS) for determining total ozone and a Limb Sounder (GLS) for determining vertical distributions of ozone, temperature and other trace gases at altitudes above the tropopause.
