Recent
ozonesonde data (2004-2006) are on our anonymous ftp
site: cat.uwyo.edu in the directory ftp://cat.uwyo.edu/pub/permanent/balloon/Ozone_Profiles_McMurdo/.
The 2006 data are preliminary because of a change in the cathode
solution strength
and the way pump inefficiency at low pressures is handled. A final
decision about how to finally process these data has not been made.
The archived
(NDACC, see below) 2005 and 2004
data can also be found here.
