Abstract
A seasonal climatology of the 1965-1975 Melbourne ozonesonde ozone profile record is presented, spanning a period when minimal stratospheric ozone chemical depletion existed and prior to adequate satellite ozone profiling. Results are presented as monthly isentropic weighted means of ozone mixing ratio and partial pressure, with associated uncertainties, plotted against potential temperature and altitude. Corrections for pump inefficiency and referencing to the current ozonesonde type are included. The general seasonal and altitudinal features of the results are consistent with our current understanding of ozone variations in the southern mid-latitudes. These results are of value to atmospheric chemical and climate change models.

climate impacts,
climate modelling ,
past change in the climate system including palaeoclimate variability,
atmospheric dynamics,
synoptic meteorology,
mesoscale meteorology and severe weather,
tropical meteorology,
observation systems,
remote sensing of atmospheric, oceanic and land surface processes,
weather, climate and ocean prediction,
