Comportamiento de la columna total de ozono obtenidos porel sensor Eptoms de la NASA para la ciudad de Puno periodo2005-2017
Abstract
Data of the Total Ozone Column have been analyzed in this paper,which were derived from the measurements performed by the Earth Probe TotalOzone Mapping Spectrometer (EPTOMS) of the National Aeronautics andSpace Administration (NASA), by assessing its suitability for the predictionof the Ultraviolet (UV) Index for the city of Puno (15.83◦south latitude and70.03◦west longitude). After a one-year analysis was performed by means ofadjustments of sinusoidal functions, it is observed that the gap changes, fromone year to the next. Additionally, during the period studied (2005-2017), threedates were found in which ozone holes were presented: On February 5, 2010 andApril 29, 2016, values of 218 Dobson Units (DU) were presented, and on May17, 2005, a value of 219 DU was presented. The behavior of the ozone column,per year, displays a sinusoidal cyclical shape, as it is established in the seasonalcycle.
