This paper reports on the first measurements of OClO vertical profiles in the arctic stratosphere from a balloon borne sonde launched from northern Sweden, carrying a lightweight spectrometer scanning the ultraviolet and visible spectrum. The vertical profiles of OClO were observed during two flights when the presence of polar stratospheric clouds could be confirmed from the ground. The column densities inferred are consistent with ground and aircraft based column density measurements.
