Rocket Measurement of Mesospheric Ozone at High Latitude (f. Polar Ionosphere) (Proceedings of the Second Symposium on Coordinated Observations of the Ionosphere and the Magnetosphere in the Polar Regions : Part II)

Abstract

A rocket measurement of the vertical distribution of ozone in the mesosphere has been made under a high latitude winter condition, with the solar ultraviolet absorption method. The measured ozone concentration at 60 km was l.7×10^9 cm^3, which was much lower than the typical value of that measured at the mid-latitude.
