A. M. Zvyagintsev, N. S. Ivanova, G. M. Kruchenitskii, I. N. Kuznetsova, and A. A. Artamonova

The review is compiled based on the results of the operation of the total ozone (TO) monitoring system in the CIS and Baltic countries, functioning in the operational regime at the Central Aerological Observatory (CAO). The monitoring system uses the data from the national network of type M-124 filter ozonometers under control of the Main Geophysical Observatory (MGO); the proper operation of the entire system is under an operational control from observations with the OMI satellite (US NASA) equipment. Basic TO observations data for each month of the third quarter of 2009 and for the quarter as a whole are generalized. Results of regular observations of the surface ozone content carried out by the CAO in the Moscow park zone are considered; they characterize to a great extent the air quality in the surface layer of the Moscow region.
