Abstract
A procedure was developed for determining vertical ozone distributions from spectral measurements of UV radiances diffusely reflected from the terrestrial atmosphere. In this procedure, the inversion method of Aruga and Igarashi (1976) is improved by incorporating the effects of multiple scattering and the lower boundary of the atmosphere. The improved inversion algorithm was tested using data of NIMBUS-4 backscattered UV experiments. The results indicate that by using this method, the vertical distributions of atmospheric ozone can be obtained with high accuracy over a wide range of altitude.
