摘要: Abstract : A rocket-borne ozonesonde (self-pumping type) has been developed which uses the chemiluminescent principle for detection of ozone concentration in atmosphere. This flown with ARCAS rocket at Fort Greely, Alaska, during day as well night. The results show large diurnal variations upper stratospheric and agree observations made White Sands Missile Range different ozonesondes (sampling chamber). Results soundings self-pumping type instrument are also presented. Ozone concentrations found these higher values stratosphere than that predicted by oxygen photochemical theory.
