*The O₃ profile is terminated in the zenith when the standard error exceeds 20% of the mean. The O₃ profile is terminated in the nadir when the standard error exceeds 25%

of the mean except on flights 4, 9, 14 and 16.  On these flights, the 3 minute horizontal average O₃ profile is terminated when the standard error exceeds 20 % of the mean

and the profile is then extended by increasing the horizontal average to 18 minutes (~ 252 km).  The profile is then terminated when the standard error exceeds 25% of the

18 minute mean.
