Yang, H. and Tung, K.K. (1994). Statistical significance and pattern of extratropical QBO in column ozone. Geophysical Research Letters 21: doi: 10.1029/94GL02120. issn: 0094-8276.

Statistical tests are performed on 30 years (1957-1986) of Dobson station data. The triple-period (30, 20, and 8.6 months) extratropical QBO signal in ozone is found to be statistically significant. Earlier tests, based on 9 years of TOMS data, gave ambiguous results. We further suggest an objective method for extracting ozone QBO signal in the extratropics using a linear regression model. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1994
