Fig. 12. The variation in <strong>the</strong> error budgets associated with <strong>the</strong> J values calculated using both <strong>the</strong> original and <strong>modified</strong> <strong>band</strong> <strong>approach</strong>es <strong>for</strong><br />

(a) O3→O 1 D, (b) NO2, (c) N2O5 and (d) H2O2, with respect to <strong>the</strong> incident θ. Comparisons are made against reference B. Conditions are<br />

identical to those described <strong>for</strong> Fig 11.<br />

and HNO4. However, <strong>the</strong> application <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> limits across all<br />

species results in a decrease in <strong>the</strong> accuracy <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>modified</strong><br />

<strong>band</strong> method <strong>for</strong> species such as H2O2 due to <strong>the</strong> characteristic<br />

absorption properties exhibited within particular <strong>band</strong>s<br />
