Rolf Müller has published an interesting review of the stratospheric ozone research in Meteorologische Zeitschrift. This paper describes the discovery of ozone and the first tropospheric measurements, covering the discovery of the role of ozone as an absorber of solar radiation, and the first measurements of total column ozone. In addition, it presents the development of the understanding of the chemistry of stratospheric ozone, and the discovery of the ozone hole.
