ON THE INFLUENCE OF THE ATMOSPHERIC DYNAM ICS ON THE OZONE VERTICAL-DISTRIBUTION BY MEASUREMENTS IN MILLIMETER-WAVE BAND

Influence of dynamic processes in the atmosphere on the vertical ozone distribution in the middle and upper stratosphere has been studied on the base of observations in millimeter wave band at LPI Radioastronom ical station in winter seasons of 1987 - 1990. Correlation of ozone co ntent at various altitude levels (approximately from 30 to 55 km) both with total ozone content and the sum of n = 1 and n = 2 planetary wav e amplitudes has been considered. The comparison of the data has shown that transport processes have noticeable influence on ozone content a bove 30 km for conditions of considerable perturbations in the stratos phere. For example, correlation coefficients of ozone content at 10 an d 2.5 mbar levels with total ozone content were 0.74 and 0.57 correspo ndingly. The conclusion was drawn that the vertical ozone distribution in layers where the correlation has been discovered was influenced by large-scale dynamical processes in winter stratosphere.
