What Does HIRDLS Stand For?
HIRDLS stands for HIgh Resolution Dynamics Limb Sounder EOS
HIRDLS, or High Resolution Dynamics Limb Sounder, is an Earth Observing System (EOS) instrument designed to provide detailed measurements of atmospheric temperature, pressure, and trace gas concentrations across the stratosphere and mesosphere. Utilizing advanced spectroscopy techniques, HIRDLS captures high-resolution vertical profiles to enhance our understanding of atmospheric dynamics, climate change, and gas exchange processes. Its data contributes to both weather forecasting and climate modeling, supporting scientific research and policy-making related to atmospheric science and environmental protection.
