Re: integrated ozone (total column ozone)

There can't be a function for every computation.
However, you can create your own function.

Are the data on hybrid levels? isobaric levels? ... ?

Generically: xTotal = SUM[ x*dp ]/g

where the SUM is over the vertical dimension and x is the variable.

There are function to determine 'dp'

The sum can be via

Good luck
