Sunshine activity and total column ozone variation in Lagos, Nigeria

Total column ozone data obtained from Earth Probe TOMS (Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer) Version. 8 were analyzed for Lagos, Nigeria, a northern tropical station (06.6° N, 03.33° E). It was found that total column ozone thickness has been decreasing at an average rate of about 0.32 DU per yea...
