abstract = {The ozonesonde is a small balloon-borne instrument that is
attached to a standard radiosonde to measure profiles of
ozone from the surface to 35 km with ∼100-m vertical
resolution. Ozonesonde data constitute a mainstay of
satellite calibration and are used for climatologies and
analysis of trends, especially in the lower stratosphere
where satellites are most uncertain. The electrochemical
concentration cell (ECC) ozonesonde has been deployed at
∼100 stations worldwide since the 1960s, with changes over
time in manufacture and procedures, including details of the
cell chemical solution and data processing. As a
consequence, there are biases among different stations and
discontinuities in profile time series from individual site
records. For 22 years the Jülich (Germany) Ozonesonde
Intercomparison Experiment (JOSIE) has periodically tested
ozonesondes in a simulation chamber designated the World
Calibration Centre for Ozonesondes (WCCOS) by WMO. During
October–November 2017 a JOSIE campaign evaluated the
sondes and procedures used in Southern Hemisphere Additional
Ozonesondes (SHADOZ), a 14-station sonde network operating
in the tropics and subtropics. A distinctive feature of the
2017 JOSIE was that the tests were conducted by operators
from eight SHADOZ stations. Experimental protocols for the
SHADOZ sonde configurations, which represent most of those
in use today, are described, along with preliminary results.
SHADOZ stations that follow WMO-recommended protocols record
total ozone within $3\%$ of the JOSIE reference instrument.
These results and prior JOSIEs demonstrate that regular
testing is essential to maintain best practices in
ozonesonde operations and to ensure high-quality data for
the satellite and ozone assessment communities.},
