Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in biologically-active ultraviolet radiation reaching the Earth's surface

TL;DR: The Montreal Protocol is working as mentioned in this paper and ozone depletion is now decreasing, and the decline in total column amounts seen in the 1980s and 1990s at mid-latitudes has not continued.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ozone depletion and climate change: impacts on UV radiation

TL;DR: The Montreal Protocol is working, but it will take several decades for ozone to return to 1980 levels, and the phase-out of CFCs is currently tending to counteract the increases in surface temperature due to increased GHGs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Environmental effects of ozone depletion, UV radiation and interactions with climate change: UNEP Environmental Effects Assessment Panel, update 2017

Germar Bernhard, +41 more
TL;DR: The present 2017 Update Report assesses some of the highlights and new insights about the interactive nature of the direct and indirect effects of UV radiation, atmospheric processes, and climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ozone depletion, ultraviolet radiation, climate change and prospects for a sustainable future

Paul Barnes, +38 more
TL;DR: The Montreal Protocol has also played an important role in mitigating climate change as discussed by the authors, and the Montreal Protocol will continue to have far-reaching benefits for human well-being and environmental sustainability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ozone–climate interactions and effects on solar ultraviolet radiation

TL;DR: Evidence since the last assessment reconfirms that systematic and accurate long-term measurements of UV radiation and stratospheric ozone are essential for assessing the effectiveness of the Montreal Protocol and its Amendments and adjustments.
