Description
In this contribution, we give an overview of the ozonesonde stations that homogenized their ECC time series according to the principles of the O3S-DQA activity. We also present the roadmap to increase the number of homogenized (European) ozonesonde stations, in close collaboration with the station PIs. We will also discuss the different possibilities to make the already homogenized datasets available to the LOTUS community. Finally, we will give a short outlook of further homogenization activities of ozonesonde data: the need of a validation tool, possible additional correction algorithms for the radiosonde pressure sensor bias and background current substraction.
