The ozone profiles measured by SBUV in the region of the antarctic ozone minimum are in error as archived for altitudes below the 7 mb level in the atmosphere because of the lack of a reasonable climatology to use for the initial guess profile. We have examined the ozone profile error in this region and have shown that use of a reasonable climatology in this unusual region results in ozone profiles that agree substantially better with the balloon observations available from the Syowa station. The corrected profiles show that by 1984 there was 35% less ozone in the 15 to 30 km region than in 1979, and 14% less even in the 40 to 50 km region.
