Popis: A lidar system has been developed which is particularly suited for high resolution measurements of the ozone vertical distribution in the lower troposphere. This has been used for routine observations as well as for intensive measurement campaigns. An extensive dataset on the annual cycle of the ozone density in the lower troposphere has been collected, which confirms the persistently high ozone level in the free troposphere even during winter. The variability in this height regime is found rather small, which shows, that large scale processes are dominant here. The diurnal cycle of the boundary layer ozone in particular during episodes of enhanced ozone formation has been studied. The eddy correlation technique by remote sensing has been developed and applied successfully in a case study of the redistribution of ozone in the convective boundary layer. This method has been extended to estimate vertical profiles of ozone production rates in the boundary layer. Vertical transport terms were found important for the ozone budget over extended periods of time.
