A more detailed examination of the TOMS observations reveal a number of important aspects of the Antarctic ozone depletion. First we note that the presence of large scale disturbances around the edge of the ''ozone hole'' can lead to high variable station observations. Second, an examination of the zonal mean total ozone for the seven Octobers shows that the large systematic decline is not simply confined to the polar region but exists as mid-latitudes as well. Integrations of the total ozone from the South Pole northwards show that a portion of the systematic trend of decreasing Antarctic total ozone (prior to 1985) seems to be due to a redistribution of total ozone to subpolar and mid-latitude regions. That is, decreases at high latitudes are compensated by increases at lower latitudes. The correlation between zonal mean total ozone and 70 mb zonal mean total from polar to mid-latitudes show that the systematic decrease in total ozone is well correlated with a systematic decrease in stratospheric temperatures.
