Low ozone concentrations over Macquarie Island during 1997 Part II: satellite ozone analysis

The year 1997 was notable for the record low ozone column densities observed between 20°S and 60°S. The Ozone Analysis System (OASYS) has been used to investigate low ozone events during 1997 at Macquarie Island (55°S, 159°E). OASYS uses satellite ozone data to generate three-dimensional ozone mixin...
