Abstract: Sunshine duration and total ozone trends from 1963 to 1975 for the United States are compared. It is found that in winter, spring, and summer sunshine variations correlate well with ozone variations. It is concluded that for those seasons natural cloudiness variations are in the opposite sense to natural ozone variations and tend to give partial compensation by minimizing the changes in sunburning ultraviolet radiation at the ground. In fall there is negative correlation between sunshine variations and ozone variations.
