Abstract

We present the analysis of the spatiotemporal variations in the total moisture in the air column W and total ozone over Western and Eastern Siberia, Primorye, and a region of the Sea of Japan. A comparative analysis of radiosonde and satellite data on W is performed. The results satisfactorily agree during summer and diverge (by more than a factor of two) during winter.
