Temporal and spatial variability of total ozone content in Moldova: satellite retrievals and ground observations

The total ozone content (TOC) values retrieved from measurements of spectral backscat- tered radiation with Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) instruments onboard of Nimbus-7, Meteor-3 and Earth Probe platforms and with Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) inboard of Aura platform are used to...
