Evidence is presented for a lunar effect on the amount of atmospheric ozone at Arosa in Switzerland and Canberra in Australia. The amount of ozone increases at the vernal equinox about the first and third lunar quarter and decreases at the same lunar phases at the autumnal equinox. There is no effect at midwinter or midsummer. The explanation of this lunar effect is unknown, and further investigation is needed.
