CHARACTERISTICS OF TIME CORRELATION OF STRATOSPHERIC OZONE CONCENTRATION FROM LIDAR SOUNDING DATA OVER TOMSK

V. S. Komarov, V. N. Marichev, N. Ya. Lomakina, Yu. B. Popov, and S. N. Il'in

Time correlation of stratospheric ozone concentrations obtained from analysis of data of the UV-lidar vertical sounding (in the layer of 15–30 km) in 1995–2000 over Tomsk are discussed. Time correlation determined by means of autocorrelation functions of stratospheric ozone calculated for a time shift from one to seven days is described in detail, and results of their approximation by the analytic equations are analyzed.
