      abstract     = {NOAA's program of long-term monitoring of the vertical
                      distribution of ozone with electrochemical concentration
                      cell (ECC) ozonesondes has undergone a number of changes
                      over the 50-year record. In order to produce a homogenous
                      data set, these changes must be documented and, where
                      necessary, appropriate corrections applied. This is the
                      first comprehensive and consistent reprocessing of NOAA's
                      ozonesonde data records that corrects for these changes
                      using the rawest form of the data (cell current and pump
                      temperature) in native resolution as well as a
                      point-by-point uncertainty calculation that is unique to
                      each sounding. The reprocessing is carried out uniformly at
                      all eight ozonesonde sites in NOAA's network with
                      differences in sensing solution and ozonesonde types
                      accounted for in the same way at all sites. The corrections
                      used to homogenize the NOAA ozonesonde data records greatly
                      improve the ozonesonde measurements with an average one
                      sigma uncertainty of $±4–6\%$ in the stratosphere and
                      $±5–20\%$ in the troposphere. A comparison of the
                      integrated column ozone from the ozonesonde profile with
                      co-located Dobson spectrophotometers total column ozone
                      measurements shows agreement within $±5\%$ for $>70\%$ of
                      the profiles. Very good agreement is also found in the
                      stratosphere between ozonesonde profiles and profiles
