Abstract The recent ozone reference models generated for the new COSPAR International Reference Atmosphere (CIRA) include ozone vertical structure from 25 to 90 km as a function of month and latitude based on five satellite experiments. The new model provided here extends the ozone vertical structure climatology from 20 mb (≈ 25 km) to 70mb (≈ 18 km) based on 3 years of recently reprocessed AEM-2 SAGE I(sunset) data. In addition, model refinements are made at altitudes above 25 km based on the reprocessed data. Comparisons are made between the ozone reference models and non-satellite data sets. The model extensions to lower altitudes are in excellent agreement with in situ measurements both at mid latitudes and in the tropics. Annual mean models of ozone are also provided as a function of latitude from 100mb (≈ 16 km) to 0.003 mb (≈ 90 km).
