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

Abstract

The review is compiled on the basis ofthe operation ofthe system that monitors total ozone (TO) in the CIS and Baltic countries and functions in the operational regime at the Central Aerological Observatory (CAO). The monitoring system uses the data from the national network equipped with M-124 filter ozonometers under the methodological supervision ofthe Main Geophysical Observatory. The quality of the functioning of the entire system is under the operational control based on the observations obtained from the OMI satellite equipment (NASA, USA). The basic TO observation data are generalized for every month of the second quarter of 2017 and for the quarter as a whole. The data of observations of surface ozone content carried out in the Moscow region and on the Black Sea coast of Crimea are also briefly presented.
