Quantification of HCl from High Resolution Infrared Solar Spectra Obtained at the South Pole in December 1986Ground-based infrared solar spectra at 0.02/ cm resolution obtained at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole station in December 1986 have been analysed for the atmospheric content of HCl. Nonlinear least-squares spectral fitting applied to the spectra yields a total HCl column amount of (6.4 +/- 0.8) x 10(exp 15) molec/sq cm, most being stratospheric. This amount is larger than that extrapolated from earlier results on the latitudinal distribution of atmospheric HCl.
