Review article - Remote sensing and global tropospheric ozone observed dynamics

The development of remote sensing techniques to obtain measurements of ozone and its precursors from the Earth's surface to the tropopause is considered, to present a review on the current achievements in measuring tropospheric ozone variability. Special attention is given to the surface ozone concentration observations, to the production and destruction mechanisms of ozone in both the atmospheric boundary layer and the free troposphere, and finally to ozone exchange through the tropopause.
