Abstract
An intercomparison of total ozone observations made with Solar Backscatter Ultraviolet (SBUV) experiment, the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS), flown on the Nimbus-7 satellite, and the Dobson spectrophotometer installe d at Athens, Greece, is presented in order to examine their precision and a ccuracy. The results show that there is a very good agreement between the c ompared datasets corresponding to a regression line coefficient interval of 0.932-0.934.
