The main aim of the research is to develop the technique for laser remote ozone sensing in the upper troposphere – lower stratosphere by differential absorption method for temperature and aerosol correction and analysis of measurement results. The authors have determined wavelengths, promising to measure ozone profiles in the upper troposphere – lower stratosphere. We present the results of DIAL measurements of the vertical ozone distribution at the Siberian lidar station in Tomsk. The recovered ozone profiles were compared with IASI satellite data and Kruger model.
