AB: During July and August 2007, 25 ozonesondes were launched from Las Tables, Panama (7.8 N, 80.3 W) resulting in a unique data set that complements and enhances data from the SHADOZ network. Launches occurred nearly daily around 1 pm to provide the best possible coincidences with overpasses of the Aura satellite. In this presentation, we examine the exchange of air between the stratosphere and troposphere as evidenced from the profile data and make comparisons between the Panama sonde data, data from Aura satellite instruments including TES and OMI, and data from the SHADOZ network.
