Abstract
Measures of total ozone at Lisbon in July 1996 taken with a differenti al optical absorption filter instrument (UAM-DOAF) and a Dobson spectr ophotometer are compared. Correlation of the UAM-DOAF measures and NOA A-TOVS data from April to October 1996 and NASA Earth Probe TOMS data from July to October 1996 for Madrid (40 degrees N, 3 degrees W) are g iven. Results show that the UAM-DOAF instrument can be used with appro ximately a 3 per cent error in estimating short-term total ozone varia tions.
