The influence of springtime Arctic ozone recovery on stratospheric and surface climate
TL;DR: In this article , the authors used two chemistry climate models (SOCOL-MPIOM and CESM-WACCM) to assess the climatic impacts of Arctic ozone recovery on stratospheric dynamics and surface climate in the Northern Hemisphere (NH) during the 21st century.

Journal ArticleDOI
Large losses of total ozone in Antarctica reveal seasonal ClOx/NOx interaction
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the very low temperatures which prevail from midwinter until several weeks after the spring equinox make the Antarctic stratosphere uniquely sensitive to growth of inorganic chlorine, ClX, primarily by the effect of this growth on the NO2/NO ratio.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased polar stratospheric ozone losses and delayed eventual recovery owing to increasing greenhouse-gas concentrations
TL;DR: In this paper, the interplay between projected future emissions of greenhouse gases and levels of ozone-depleting halogen species using a global climate model that incorporates simplified ozone depletion chemistry was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Continuing decline in the growth rate of the atmospheric methane burden
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an analysis of methane measurements from a global air sampling network that suggests that, assuming constant OH concentration, global annual methane emissions have remained nearly constant during the period 1984-96, and that the decreasing growth rate in atmospheric methane reflects the approach to a steady state on a timescale comparable to methane's atmospheric lifetime.

Decline in the Tropospheric Abundance of Halogen from Halocarbons - Implications for Stratospheric Ozone Depletion

TL;DR: The results suggest that the amount of reactive chlorine and bromine will reach a maximum in the stratosphere between 1997 and 1999 and will decline thereafter if limits outlined in the adjusted and amended Montreal Protocol on Substances That Deplete the Ozone Layer are not exceeded in future years.

Present and future trends in the atmospheric burden of ozone-depleting halogens

TL;DR: In this article, atmospheric concentrations of the persistent, anthropogenic chemicals that account for most ozone-depleting halogens in today's stratosphere were measured and it was shown that the decline stems from the decrease in the atmospheric load of trichloroethane (CH3CClCl3), a previously common cleaning solvent.
