In search of the correlation between quasi-biennial atmospheric fluctuations and ozon concentration and temperature changes in Antarctica
The correlation dependence between quasi-biennial oscillation at levels of 70, 50 and 30 hPa and the parameters of the Antarctic "ozone hole", as well as air temperature at 70 hPa over Antarctica, is estimated. Both classical correlation analysis and the Hilbert transform were used as a research tool. The results obtained indicate that the hypothesis about the possible existence of a connection between the QBO and the state of the Antarctic "ozone hole" with a high degree of probability has no basis.
