Annual variation of ozone in Antarctica

Abstract Observations of the total ozone at Halley Bay (75°S) during the I.G.Y. showed that the annual variation there was very different from that found at a similar northern latitude. Later observations now available show similar characteristics. Further, recent measurements at the South Pole and...

Description
Summary:Abstract Observations of the total ozone at Halley Bay (75°S) during the I.G.Y. showed that the annual variation there was very different from that found at a similar northern latitude. Later observations now available show similar characteristics. Further, recent measurements at the South Pole and at Byrd (80°S) give similar results to those at Halley Bay, indicating that this type of annual variation is probably characteristic of Antarctica generally.
