Abstract
In order to study the behavior of atmospheric ozone in Antarctica, the correlation coefficients between total amounts of ozone and altitudes and between those and upper-air temperature at Syowa station for each month of spring and summer have been computed during the period 1982 to 1987. It is statistically shown that the characteristics of those monthly correlation coefficients are found for the months of October and December, and they are divided into three seasonal patterns. Two of the three patterns have characteristics at Syowa, while one is also seen in Japan.
