Description
We present a detailed and uniform study of oxygen abundances in a large
set of 155 metal-rich dwarfs. EW measurements were carried out for the
[OI] 6300 Å line and the OI triplet, while spectral synthesis was
performed for several OH lines. NLTE corrections were calculated and
applied to the LTE abundance results derived from the triplet.
Abundances from [OI], the OI triplet and near-UV OH were obtained in
103, 87 and 77 dwarfs, respectively. A good agreement between [O/H]
ratios from forbidden and OH lines is found, while the NLTE triplet
shows a systematically lower abundance. Nevertheless, the consistency
with other indicators improves if we consider LTE triplet results. In
any case, discrepancies between OH, [OI] and the OI triplet hardly
exceed 0.2dex. All three indicators show that, on average, [O/Fe]
decreases with [Fe/H] in the metallicity range
-0.8<[Fe/H]<0.5.
