Understanding the role of ozone in the Mesosphere/Lower Thermosphere (MLT)
region is essential for understanding the atmospheric processes in the upper
atmosphere. Earlier studies have shown that it is possible to use overdense
meteor trails to measure ozone concentration in the meteor region. Here we
revisit this topic by comparing a compilation of radar observations to
satellite measurements. We observe a modest agreement between the values
derived from these two methods, which confirm the usefulness of the meteor
trail technique for measuring ozone content at certain heights in the MLT
region. Future simultaneous measurements will help quantifying the performance
of this technique.Comment: MNRAS in pres
