Longterm upper Air Ozone Soundings in Antarctica from the German Antarctic Station since 1985.
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
Since 1985 regular ozone soundings have been performed at Georg Forster Station (70#46'S, 11#41'E).
Description
In the beginning of 1992, this ozone sounding program was moved to Neumayer (70#39'S, 8#15'W), which is located at the same latitude 750 km further west. The results of both stations can be regarded as one timeseries, now covering a whole decade with only minor interruptions.
Vertical atmospheric soundings are performed about weekly. They include profile measurements of ozone partial pressure, air pressure, temperature, relative humidity and wind vector. Usually the profiles start at ground level and end between 15 and 37 km.

The data obtained at Georg-Forster Station include mainly the mean pressure levels while the data from Neumayer have a mean height resolution of about 50 meter. At AWI the ozone soundings of both stations are archived in a relational database (SYBASE). Up to now only the data from Neumayer Station are available online on WWW.
Actual soundings normally reach the database once a year. The data can be retrieved with Web and are free of charge. The address is:
