Abstract

The ozone data obtained from the satellite (AUREA) and the sensor Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) were used to study the temporary and spatial variability of the total ozone column (TOC) in 8 different cities in Mato Grosso do Sul (MS)—Brazil, during the period 2005–2020. The monthly average values of TOC show maximum values in September and minimum values in June in all seasons. Monthly spatial behavior (TOC) is greater in the south/southwest (S/SW) and SW of MS than in the central and northern (N) parts.
