Ozone is an important atmospheric trace constituent. The depletion of solar radiation between approximately 2000 and 3000 A is the result of strong absorption by ozone in the ultraviolet wavelengths. The energy absorbed in this process is the prime source of the~l energy in the stratosphere. Because of this, ozone plays an important role in the large-scale motions of the atmosphere. As a result, there is an ever-increasing interest in global total ozone measurements. The paucity of total ozone measuring stations over vast regions of both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres has greatly hindered any complete understanding of the role stratospheric ozone plays in the general circulation processes of the atmosphere. With total ozone sensors on earth-orbiting satellites the ozone over the entire earth is remotely measured daily. The conclusions of some of the analyses from the first satellite (Nimbus III) are discussed in this paper. A strong correlation was found between the meridional gradient of total ozone and the wind velocity in jet stream systems. A procedure evolved which will allow the computation of the wind velocity at 250 mh. This should prove to be a useful relation to apply over the oceanic regions of the Northern Hemisphere and throughout most of the Southern Hemisphere. Wind velocities at jet aircraft operation levels could then be forecasted by consulting the daily satellite total ozone analyses.
