abstract = {[1] The MOZAIC ( Measurement of Ozone and Water Vapor by
Airbus In-service Aircraft) program (Marenco et al., 1998)
has archived in situ measurements of temperature, water
vapor, and ozone from August 1994 to December 2003. We
analyze the trends, seasonality, and interannual variability
of these quantities at aircraft cruise levels (7.7 - 11.3
km) within the tropics ( 20 degrees S - 20 degrees N). Mean
lapse rates for temperature and log( water vapor) are nearly
identical in both tropics. The root-mean-square variance in
temperature over cruise levels, seasons, and years is small,
<= 1 degrees C. The seasonal range in water vapor, a factor
of 2.5, is much larger than expected from the seasonal range
in temperature (1.7 degrees C) if the two scale with the
lapse rate relation or the Clausius-Clapeyron equation. The
mean ozone abundance in the region sampled is 45 ppb in the
north tropics and 50 ppb in the south tropics. This 112-
month period shows a clearly linear increase in ozone over
the north tropics with a trend fit of 1.12 +/- 0.05 ppb/yr.
In the south tropics, which has a large seasonal range of
over 25 ppb, the trend is less obvious but still robust,
1.03 +/- 0.08 ppb/yr. These trends in the upper troposphere
are twice as large as reported for surface ozone over the
tropical Atlantic (Lelieveld et al., 2004), but this pattern
of ozone increases is consistent with projected increases
driven by industrial emissions.},
