Abstract

The mean vertical ozone distribution as a function of season is computed from almost 6 years of regular soundings (three times per week) over Switzerland. By comparing the concurrent mean values of the total amount with the 35-year average at Arosa, and by using the correlation between ozone concentration at different levels with the total amount, adjusted values for the seasonal variation of the vertical ozone distribution are obtained which are thought to give a better representation of the long-term climatological mean. The data show a prominent biennial variation of the ozone content around the level of the maximum concentration which does not, however, show up in the total amount because it is missing in the lower stratosphere.
