The Airborne SUbmillimeter Radiometer (ASUR) is a passive airborne radiometer developed at the University of Bremen. It measures the thermal emissions of trace gases in upper atmosphere across the 604.3 to 662.3 GHz frequency range. It is typically used for the detection of ozone, water vapor, and species important for ozone chemistry. ASUR provides vertical profiles from 15 to 50 km with a vertical resolution of approximately 6km and 12km for the lower and upper stratosphere, respectively.
