Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer Lower Tropospheric Ozone Measurement


ozone measurements

Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer measurements taken on September 20, 2004 of ozone concentrations in the lower troposphere. The map covers the Earth from 82° N to 82° S. The color scale is in Dobson units (DU), a measurement of the number of ozone molecules per square centimeter of air in a column of atmosphere. The numbers superimposed on the maps indicate latitude and longitude.
