Sammendrag:
This report summarizes the results from the Norwegian monitoring programme on stratospheric ozone and UV radiation measurements. The ozone layer has been measured at three locations since 1979: In Oslo/Kjeller, Tromsø/Andøya and Ny-Ålesund. The UV measurements started in 1995. The results show that there was a significant decrease in stratospheric ozone above Norway between 1979 and 1997. After that, the ozone layer stabilized at a level ~2% below pre-1980 level. The year 2024 was characterized by high total ozone values most of the year, especially in the Arctic stations in March. For Ny-Ålesund, 2024 showed the highest annual average total ozone value since systematic ground-based ozone measurements started in 1997.
