This article reports measurements made at Jungfraujoch (46.5[degrees]N), during the winters of 1990-1991, and 1991-1992, of column amounts of nitrogen dioxide. The measurements were made by differential absorption techniques in the visible spectrum. There is a significant decrease between the two seasons, following the Mt. Pinatubo eruption, which may be the result of increased effects of atmospheric chemical reactions.
