Abstract

Ozone observations have been taken for many years in Tromsø, 70°N. From 1979 new measurements started in Oslo, 60°N. The ozone amount changes from day to day and have a seasonal change. One sees the same type of variations in the south, but since 1978 the seasonal change has changed. An ozone depletion appears and normal condition is not established before early summer. The different behaviours are demonstrated and this may be connected to difference in dynamical processes and a relative importance of heterogeneous reactions in chemical processes.
