Abstract
IN a recent communication1 Götz, Dobson and Meetham have reported that the average height of ozone in the atmosphere at Arosa, Switzerland, is about 20 km. This height is much less than the former estimates. Götz and Ladenburg2 and Buisson3 are in agreement with this view. Even at a height of 2–3 km. a perceptible amount of ozone may be present, but the highest concentration seems to be at a height of 15–50 km.
