Abstract: | Surface ozone concentration and UV-B data between 75° N and 70° S were obtained aboard the Chinese polar scientific vessel
“Xue -long” (Snow-Dragon) during the first voyage to the Arctic and the 16th to the Antarctic in 1999–2000. Analysis of these data presents that variations
of the surface ozone concentration have small amplitude during voyages except the mid-latitude in the Northern Hemisphere.
As a whole, average surface ozone concentration in the Northern Hemisphere is higher than that in the Southern, and high value
occurred when the ship sailed close to the continents. The average diurnal variations of the surface ozone in the Northern
Hemisphere are also higher compared to the southern counterparts, and high diurnal variations were found at low latitudes,
and relative low level in the polar region. |
