Ozone content over the Russian Federation in the third quarter of 2017

Abstract

The review is based on the results of the operation of the total ozone (TO) monitoring in the CIS and Baltic countries. The system is functioning in the operational regime at the Central Aerological Observatory (CAO) and uses the data from the national network equipped with M-124 filter ozonometers being under the methodological supervision of the Main Geophysical Observatory. The quality of the entire system functioning is under the operational control based on the TO observations including those obtained from the OMI satellite equipment (NASA, USA). Basic TO observation data are generalized for each month of the third quarter of 2017 and for the third quarter. The data of routine observations of surface ozone values in the Moscow region and on the Black Sea coast of Crimea are also presented.
