abstract = {The Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric
Sounding (MIPAS) was successfully launched on board ENVISAT
in March 2002. The spectrally highly resolved limb emission
spectra provide a great opportunity for the detection and
differentiation of cloud types. Monitoring of PSC cloud
coverage and type differentiation by remote sensors on a
vortex-wide basis are essential for better understanding and
quantification of the denitrification in both polar vortices
and effects on ozone recovery. The MIPAS is currently the
only instrument in space delivering global observations of
polar stratospheric cloud (PSC) distribution over complete
winters. These kinds of measurements are becoming more and
more important for the validation of PSC formation
mechanisms of microphysical models on a statistical basis.
In this study, MIPAS-calibrated limb spectra are analysed.
Retrieved PSC quantities (e.g., cloud top heights and PSC
occurrence frequencies) for the Arctic winter 2002/2003 and
Antarctic winter 2003 are presented in comparison with
meteorological analyses. Characteristics of the specific
winters are highlighted. In addition, a preliminary PSC type
differentiation scheme for nitric acid trihydrate (NAT)
particles has been applied to the measured infrared spectra.
