Characterization and analysis of the Nimbus-7 SBUV data in the non-sync period (February 1987 - June 1990)The SBUV instrument, on Nimbus-7, measures the backscatter ultraviolet radiance at 12 wavelengths. The radiance data from these wavelengths was used to deduce the ozone profile and the total column ozone. In February 1987, there was an instrument malfunction. The purpose of this paper is to describe the malfunction, to determine the effect of the malfunction on the data quality, and if possible, to correct for the effects of the malfunction on the data from the SBUV instrument.
