The Relationship of Total Atmospheric Ozone to the Sunspot Cycle

For the 27-year period 1933-1959 inclusive, highly significant negative correlation is found between the relative sunspot number and the worldwide average of total atmospheric ozone. Peak correlation with respect to the present-day 10-year sunspot cycle is found at a lag of 1•/• to 2 years of the sunspots relative to ozone. The peak correlation of total atmospheric ozone with the mean latitudin...

NH total ozone increase

On the possible causes of recent increases in NH total ozone from a statistical analysis of satellite data from 1979 to 2003 S. Dhomse, M. Weber, I. Wohltmann, M. Rex, and J. P.

Estonian total ozone climatology

The climatological characteristics of total ozone over Estonia based on the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) data are discussed. The mean annual cycle during 1979–2000 for the site at 58.3 N and 26.5 E is compiled. The available ground-level data interpolated before TOMS, have been used for trend detection. During the last two decades, the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) corrected syste...

Svalbard total ozone

The historical total ozone measurements taken with Dobson Spectrophotometer #8 at Longyearbyen, Svalbard, Norway, in the period 1950–1962 have been re-analyzed and homogenized based on the original measurement logs, using updated relevant parameters. In lack of sufficient calibration information, an empirical quality assessment 5 was performed, based on a climatological comparison with ozone me...
