A Statistical Model of Winter/Spring Polar Ozone

N. S. Ivanova

Satellite measurements provided by NASA (USA) at http://ozonewatch.gsfc.nasa.gov are used to study the variability and interdependence of polar ozone, polar temperature, and mean zonal wind. A model of winter/spring polar ozone in the Arctic and Antarctic is constructed using data on polar temperatures at 30, 70, and 100 hPa levels and mean zonal wind at 10 and 70 hPa levels in the latitude zone of 45°–75°. The results of the statistical analysis of the 1979–2020 polar ozone calculation errors are presented.
