Abstract
The surface ozone recorder developed at Poona uses a Brewer electrochemical bubbler ozone sensor and provides a rapid and convenient method for the continous measurement of ozone concentration near the ground. Continuous recording with the sensor is possible if a constant level of solution can be maintained in the bubbler. This was achieved by incorporating a reservoir of KI solution which automatically syphons the solution into the bubbler. The errors inherent in the system and the successful attempts to remove them and obtain continuous records of surface ozone of the accuracy required are described.
