摘要：

Using measurements of the stratospheric ozone column observed by NIMBUS-7 TOMS above high-altitude clouds observed by the collocated Temperature Humidity InfraRed (THIR) sensor, we analyze the stratospheric ozone column zonal wave structure in the tropics. A zonal wave-1 structure occurs roughly longitudinally coincident with the total-ozone wave with its peak near the prime meridian and trough near the central Pacific Ocean. The monthly average stratospheric ozone exhibits a wave-1 pattern with amplitude of similar to4 DU and a maximum peak-to-trough difference of similar to 13 DU in the 1979-1984 time period. This stratospheric amplitude represents about one half of the similar to7 DU amplitude in total column ozone. This partitioning of some of the total ozone column wave into the stratosphere affects the tropospheric ozone component of derivations that assume stratospheric zonal invariance.
