Abstract. A prominent ozone minimum of less than 240 Dobson Units (DU) was observed over Irene (25.5 ◦ S, 28.1 ◦ E), a subtropical site in the Southern Hemisphere, by the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) during May 2002 with an extremely low ozone value of less than 219 DU recorded on 12 May,...

In this study, the vertical structure of this ozone minimum is exam-ined using ozonesonde measurements performed over Irene on 15 May 2002, when the total ozone (as given by TOMS) was about 226 DU. It is shown that this ozone minimum is of Antarctic polar origin with a low-ozone layer in the middle stratosphere above 625 K (where the climatological ozone gradient points equatorward), and is of tropical origin with a low-ozone layer in the lower stratosphere between the 400-K Text Antarc* Antarctic Unknown Antarctic |
