The change in total ozone between the seasonal periods April to June and July to September at Macquarie Island (Australia, 55°S, 159°E) are shown to be highly statistically significant during the latter half of the 1980s when compared to the seasonal changes observed over the period 1963–79. These results support a previous analysis by the author which indicated significant winter ozone decreases using a less rigorous method and a shorter time series.
