Dobson unit

A unit used in the measure of the column abundance of ozone in the atmosphere.

One Dobson unit is the equivalent of 2.69 × 10¹⁶ molecules of ozone per square centimeter. Alternatively, 1 Dobson unit corresponds to a layer of ozone 10 μm thick, if the ozone were held at standard temperature and pressure (273 K, 1 atm pressure).
