“…For PROFOZ, early versions were partially evaluated against ozonesonde, aircraft, MLS, surface measurements, model simulations, and tropospheric ozone derivations from other methods (Pittman et al, 2009;Liu et al, 2010bLiu et al, , 2013aZhang et al, 2010;Walker et al, 2010;Tarasick et al, 2010;Sellitto et al, 2011;Bak et al, 2013aBak et al, , b, 2015Foret et al, 2014;Ziemke et al, 2014). The analyses generally showed good agreement with other correlative data but revealed limited sensitivity to ozone in the lower troposphere and near the surface.…”
