•Proposed: HIRDLS to Provide Stratospheric O3 Profiles ~2 km resolution •Actual: Using MLS Data to Derive TOR•Challenge: Accuracy of Lower Stratospheric Data at Mid-latitudes
•Proposed: Use DAO to Provide Tropopause Heights
•Actual: Using GFS to Determine Stratospheric O3 and Tropopause Heights
• Challenges: GFS O3 not “user-friendly”
O3 calculated only from 100 hPa to 10 hPainitially using climatology to complete SCO
•Proposed: Use OMI Vertical Profiles to Calculate SCO•Actual: Have not tried to obtain OMI stratospheric profiles (availability?)
Study using SBUV shows good agreement with SAGE & O3sondes
•Proposed: Use Convective Cloud Differential Technique•Actual: Preliminary results

One Last Thought:
• Patience!We’re still a long way from where we would like to be
• How good did TOMS data look in 1979?
• OMI data will evolve
