Fishman, J. and Brackett, V.G. (1997). The climatological distribution of tropospheric ozone derived from satellite measurements using version 7 Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer and Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment data sets. Journal of Geophysical Research 102: doi: 10.1029/97JD01373. issn: 0148-0227.

The climatological distribution of tropospheric ozone derived from satellite observations has been updated using the reprocessed version 7 Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) gridded data. The use of version 7 of the archive has not changed any of the climatological features first identified using earlier archived versions of the TOMS data. In general, however, the absolute values of the amount of ozone in the troposphere are decreased by ~5 Dobson units (DU). In areas of persistent marine stratus clouds, the climatological values are decreased by an additional 2--3 DU.¿ 1997 American Geophysical Union
