Detection and measurement of total ozone from stellar spectra : Paper 2 . Historic data from 1935 – 1942
Atmospheric ozone columns are derived from historic stellar spectra observed between 1935 and 1942 at Mount Wilson Observatory, California. Comparisons with contemporary measurements in the Arosa database show a generally close correspondence, while a similar comparison with more sparse data from Table Mountain reveals a difference of ∼15–20%, as has also been found by other researches of the l...
متن کاملCalculation of total column ozone from global UV spectra at high latitudes
[1] A new algorithm to retrieve total column ozone from global spectral UV irradiance measurements is presented, and its accuracy is assessed. The expanded uncertainty (coverage factor 2) of the resulting ozone values varies between 2% and 3.5% for solar zenith angles (SZA) smaller than 75 and clear skies. For larger SZA the uncertainty becomes dominated by the sensitivity of the method to the ...
متن کاملComparative Spectral Analysis and Correlation Properties of Observed and Simulated Total Column Ozone Records
We present a statistical analysis of total column ozone records obtained from satellite measurements and from two global climate chemistry models on global scale. Firstly, a spectral weight analysis is performed where the relative strength of semiannual, annual and quasi-biennial oscillations are determined with respect to the integrated power spectra. The comparison reveals some anomalies in t...
متن کاملComparison of total ozone from the satellite instruments GOME and TOMS with measurements from the Dobson network
Over the last 3 decades, satellite data have been used to monitor long-term global changes in stratospheric ozone. The TOMS series (1978–present) and GOME (1995– present) are two very important instruments in this context. In this paper, TOMS total ozone and three approaches to derive total ozone from GOME measurements are validated with ground-based Dobson network data. Beyond the operational ...
متن کاملInfluence of Scintillation on Quality of Ozone Monitoring by Gomos
Point-like nature of stars leads to significant disturbances of light beams passed through the atmosphere by refractive effects. These effects should be taken into account in retrievals from stellar occultation measurements. We consider the influence of scintillation on stellar occultation measurements and on quality of ozone retrievals from these measurements, based on experience of the GOMOS ...
