In this Dissertation were identified events of influence of the Antarctic ozone hole over the South of Brazil that occurred in the period between 1979 and 2011. For this, we analyzed the daily average data of total ozone column obtained through the Brewer Spectrophotometers MKIV #081 model during the period 1992-2000, MKII model #056 of 2000-2002 and MKIII #167 model from 2002 to the present day, installed in the Southern Space Observatory- OES/CRS/INPE MCTI (29,4 °S; 53,8°O; 488,7m) and by satellite instruments Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) and Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) to the same latitude of the southern Space Observatory in the absence of surface equipment data, searching for days of falls in ozone content. For these days, isentrópicas analyses were conducted of potential vorticity using Reanalysis data provided by the National Centers for Environmental PredictionAtmospheric Research (NCEPNCAR), in order to verify the origin of ozone-poor air mass. Confirmation of the origin of polar air masses took place through the analysis of the trajectories retroactive made through the Hysplit model of NOAA. In addition, it was also conducted a complementary analysis through the pictures of the ozone content of TOMS and OMI, the ozone hole in the Antarctic region and its connection to the South of Brazil. The methodology used was effective in the identification of 66 events of the Influence of Antarctic Ozone Hole over south of Brazil, which showed an average drop of 8.66 ± 3.13 in the ozone content. The identification of the stratospheric circulation pattern through the medium of the vorticity field potential for the occurrence of the phenomenon was performed. In addition, were shown an analysis of synoptic weather troposphere during the occurrence of two events, noting that in both cases, the events occurred in a situation front post on the South of Brazil, coupled with the passage of the input region polar polar or subtropical jet stream, characterized by the occurrence of the event of the tropopause folding where stratospheric air intrusion occurs in the troposphere, and advancement of a high-pressure front post system that prevents the formation of significant cloud cover. Leveraging the operating environment of the Atmospheric Modeling Group (GRUMA) at the Federal University of Santa Maria (UFSM), using data from the output of numerical weather forecasting model Global Forecast System (GFS) in making maps of potential vorticity, can carry out effectively the clue of the forecast arrival of stratospheric air masses of polar origin on the southern Brazil during the spring of the year of 2012 with at least four days in advance, coinciding with the events of transport these side effects of the Antarctic ozone hole over the South of Brazil identified in the current year.
