Scientific paper

Context: There is a lively debate about the solar oxygen abundance and the role of 3D models in its recent downward revision. The models have been tested using high resolution solar atlases. Further testing can be done using centre-to-limb variations. Aims: Using high quality observations of oxygen lines across the solar surface we seek to test if the 3D and 1D models reproduce their observed centre-to-limb variation (CLV). In particular we seek to assess whether the 3D model is appropriate to derive the solar oxygen abundance. Methods: We use our recent observations of OI 777 nm, OI 615.81 nm, [OI] 630.03 nm and nine lines of other elements for five viewing angles 0.2
