ROZE
Rapid OZone Experiment

The Rapid OZone Experiment (ROZE) is an airborne in situ instrument that measures ozone levels in the troposphere and lower stratosphere. It employs the incoherent broadband cavity-enhanced absorption spectroscopy (IBBCEAS) technique to determine ozone concentrations in the sampled volume. ROZE utilizes a light-emitting diode (LED) in the ultraviolet (UV) spectrum at 265 nm. ROZE operates with a measurement sampling rate of 10 Hz and an accuracy of 6.2%.
