Abstract: The article discusses the study which assesses the cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) CO<subscript>2</subscript>CH<subscript>4</subscript>CO/H<subscript>2</subscript>O analyzer performance operating on an aircraft. The study used the CRDS analyzer to describe the system for making greenhouse gas measurements. Results show that the stability is not affected by pressure or temperature variation.
