Archives of the measurements are maintained at NIWA, Lauder, and in various international data archives. A combined data set of satellite-based vertical ozone profile measurements is maintained at NIWA using measurements from a variety of satellite-based instruments including SAGE I, SAGE II, SAGE III, ILAS I, ILAS II, HALOE, POAM II, POAM III, GOMOS, MIPAS, SCIAMACHY, OSIRIS. Measurements made at Lauder are used to monitor changes in the vertical distribution of ozone above New Zealand and to validate satellite-based vertical ozone profile measurements. The satellite-based measurements are used to provide a global context for the ozone changes over New Zealand and to attribute ozone changes over New Zealand to changes elsewhere eg over the Antarctic or over the tropics. Measurements at Lauder are representative of changes in the vertical distribution of ozone over New Zealand as a whole. Satellite-based measurements can be combined to provide a global picture of changes in stratospheric ozone. onGoing pointOfContact NIWA ++ 64 4 386 0300 voice ++ 64 4 386 0574 facsimile 301 Evans Bay Parade, Hataitai Wellington 6021 New Zealand m.harvey@niwa.co.nz Mike Harvey Principal Scientist climatologyMeteorologyAtmosphere Lauder (45.04° S, 169.68° E), New Zealand balloon-borne ozonesonde flights microwave radiometer ozone lidar Lauder eng utf8 https://dc.niwa.co.nz/niwa_dc/srv/metadata/fc07283a-a366-4e59-baa7-4b5070c444e6 WWW:LINK-1.0-http--metadata-URL Point of truth URL of this metadata record dataset
