19 Main results and conclusions http://troll.phys.spbu.ru A large number of atmospheric trace gases (TG) are retrieved by different ground-based instrumentation Temporal variations (from diurnal cycles to long- term trends) of TG are studied on the basis of experimental data The TG measurements are used for numerical modeling and for validation of satellite data Further development of techniques for TG profiles retrieving and expanding the list of TG are planned
