Abstract
The Atmospheric Chemistry Studies in the Oceanic Environment (ACSOE) OXIdising Capacity of the Ocean Atmosphere (OXICOA) Ozone Profile Experiment 96 (OZPROF-96) Aberystwyth Ozone Profiles Data from Ozonesonde and Ozone DIAL LIDAR contains tropospheric ozone data from balloon-launched ozonesondes and ground-based Ozone DIAL LIDAR in 1996.
On 12 July 1996, an ozonesonde was launched ahead of a warm front into a clear sky. It encountered a layer about 1 km deep between 11 km and 12 km altitude where ozone concentrations reached values too low to be measured by the sonde (i.e. less than 3 ppbv).
