Optical characterisation of three reference Dobsons in the ATMOZ Project – verification of G. M. B. Dobson's original specifications
Laboratory investigations of optical characteristics of three standard Dobsons provide real wavelength settings and slit functions. These parameters were compared with the original values given in the manuals. The differences between real and nominal values are not too large, but their application will in any case improve the quality of the total ozone column measurements in the global network. This improvement was the main objective of the ATMOZ project funding these activities.This work has been supported by the European
Metrology Research Programme (EMRP) within the joint research
project EMRP ENV59 ATMOZ “Traceability for atmospheric
total column ozone”. The EMRP is jointly funded by the EMRP
participating countries within EURAMET and the European Union
