The NO2-sonde is a lightweight, balloon-borne sensor (450 grams) developed by the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI). It is attached to a meteorological balloon and measures vertical profiles of tropospheric nitrogen dioxide (NO2) concentrations. The sensor operates at 425 nm and uses chemiluminescence to detect NO2. The NO2-sonde has a vertical resolution of 5 meters, a temporal resolution of 1 second, and a measurement range of 1 to 100 ppbv.
