ASIMUT, the BIRA-IASB radiative transfer code, was modified in order to take into account the changes in the atmospheric composition and structure across the martian day/night terminator. Here, we will discuss the impact of this implementation on the retrievals of ozone profiles derived from SPICAM solar occultations in the ultraviolet.
