Ozone Content over the Russian Federation in the Third Quarter of 2018

Resumo

The review is compiled on the basis of the results of the operation of the total ozone (TO) monitoring system that covers Russia and adjoining territories and functions in the operational mode at the Central Aerological Observatory (CAO). The monitoring system uses 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 system functioning is operationally controlled based on the OMI satellite equipment observations (NASA, USA). Basic TO observation data are generalized for each month of the third quarter of 2018 and for the third quarter as a whole. The data of routine observations of surface ozone values in the Moscow region, Crimea, and on the Kola Peninsula are also considered.
