Topic > Vertical structure of Antarctic tropospheric ozone…

The premise of this article focuses on the vertical structure of Antarctic tropospheric ozone depletion. This is a widely studied slight change in surface depletion. The reasoning of this study is that ozone depletion events occur in a four-dimensional phenomenon with structure in horizontal time, vertical time, and time components. Supporting evidence shows that the vertical extent of an ODE (ozone depletion event) is strongly modulated by the physical behavior of the atmosphere. In the atmosphere, the existence of a depleted air mass causes a temperature inversion. In the following summary, two separate field experiments were conducted to explore the implications and characteristics of low- and high-altitude ODEs. Two experiments were conducted in the spring of 2007 and 1987 in Antarctica at British Survey stations. The first experiment was a tethersonde experiment at Halley V station (2007). A surface ozone monitor was used and when there was a sharp drop in ozone mixing ratios, staff were alerted via an alarm. The staff then started a profiling experiment that...
