The Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer, launched in July 1996 onboard an Earth Probe Satellite (TOMS/EP), continues NASA’s long-term daily mapping of the global distribution of the Earth’s atmospheric ozone. TOMS/EP will again take high-resolution measurements of the total column amount of ozone from space that began with NASA’s Nimbus-7 satellite in 1978 and continued with \[…\]
