Abstract
The response of the total ozone (TO) at subarctic latitudes to volcanic eruptions, products of which were injected into the stratosphere, is analyzed. It is established that the behavior of the series of average annual TO values according to the TOMS, SCIAMACHY, and GOME space equipment data averaged for 55°–65° N latitudes agrees with the activity of explosive volcanic eruptions. The series of the TO satellite monitoring instrumental data are extended by 200 years into the past using a reconstruction from the dendro-chronologic data. An analysis of the series of TO reconstructed values indicates that volcanogenic perturbations of the subarctic ozonosphere initiate long-term negative TO deviations. In this case, the TO negative deviation depth depends on the frequency of the ozonosphere volcanogenic perturbations and the phase of quasiperiodic oscillation cycles rather than on the strength of a single volcanic explosion.
