Short summary

Comparisons show that ozone measured by OMI varied less than 1% relative to other NASA and European satellite instruments or relative to ground-based instruments. This means that OMI data can be used to reliably track global changes in ozone during the expected ozone recovery period and can be used to look for ozone signatures related to climate change.
