change note: 2018-08-20 14:38:26.0 [sritz] update Definition (The Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment III (SAGE III) role in the NASA's Earth Observation (EOS) program is to provide global, long-term measurements of key components of the Earth's atmosphere. The most important of these are the vertical distribution of aerosols and ozone from the upper troposphere through the stratosphere. In addition, SAGE III also provides unique measurements of temperature in the stratosphere and mesosphere and profiles of trace gases such as water vapor and nitrogen dioxide that play significant roles in atmospheric radiative and chemical processes. The SAGE III Science Team functions in a dual role where they ensure the data quality and interpret the SAGE III data in the broader context of global change. The SAGE III instrument is a grating spectrometer that measures ultraviolet/visible energy. It relies upon the flight-proven designs used in the Stratospheric Aerosol Measurement (SAM I) and SAGE I and II instruments. The SAGE III instrument was developed and managed by NASA Langley Research Center and was built by Ball Aerospace in Boulder, CO. Three copies were produced. One instrument is mounted on the Meteor-3M spacecraft and a second will be place in orbit on the International Space Station in 2005. SAGE III on the Meteor-3M is a joint mission between NASA and the Russian Space Agency (RSA). The SAGE III on the Russian Meteor-3M was launched December 10, 2001 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome.
