SHADOZ
Southern Hemisphere ADditional OZonesondes

The Southern Hemisphere ADditional OZonesondes (SHADOZ) is a NASA-sponsored network of ozonesonde stations distributed across tropical, subtropical, and remote regions of the Southern Hemisphere. Electrochemical concentration cell (ECC) ozonesondes are launched from each station to gather profile measurements of ozone, temperature, pressure, and relative humidity. The measurements are taken at a sampling rate of 1 Hz with a vertical resolution of 100 to 150 meters. SHADOZ was created to coordinate launches among the stations and to provide a central data archive for ozone vertical profiles used in climatological and trend analyses.
