Abstract

Laboratory measurements at low temperatures of the ozone absorption coefficient differences required in the standard spectroscopic measurement of atmospheric ozone are described. The measurements were made with a Dobson spectrophotometer and a quartz‐iodine source. The results at the standard wavelength pairs are

The effective temperature was – 42Β°C (Β± 2Β°C).

These results are compared with those of other workers.

The error in measured total ozone amount caused by changes in stratospheric temperatures is discussed. Maximum errors of about 4 per cent seem possible in spring warmings, the apparent ozone amount being too low.

## Abstract For the purpose of total ozone measurement, the atmosphere's particulate scattering spectrum in the 305 to 340 nm interval is approximated by a parabolic function. The inclusion of this function in the usual total ozone equations gives rise to expressions which allow the experimental de
