Concentration of atmospheric ozone: 2013 Ross Sea

Measuring atmospheric ozone in the marine boundary layer was monitored from January 26 to February 28 by the Thermo 49i O3 analyzer along the cruise track of R/V Araon from Christchurch to McMurdo Station(Ross Island), carrying out a series of expeditions in the Ross Sea. The air inlet to the instrument wa located at 29 m asl and the O3 was measured at 0.017 Hz. Tropospheric ozone (O3) is a strong greenhouse gas and it has been significantly increasing during the last century. Moreover it is an important air pollutant which adversely influence to the human health and ecosystems. Therefore our continuous shipborne measurement will help understand global radiative forcing and anthropogenic influences in the atmosphere.
