A summary of the TRACE-A mission explains the reason for the mission, the methods used to gather data, and a synopsis of the results.
Results of the TRACE-A findings are also available showing the biomass burning and it's effects on the ozone.
More maps for TRACE-A are available containing: ozone levels, ozone and rawind sonde networks, the Brazilian space agency, and the Southern African Fire-Atmospheric Research Initiative (SAFARI).
