Author(s) : ONU Environnement (ex-PNUE), WMO

Type of monograph: Other

Summary

This assessment is part of the information upon which the Parties to the Montreal Protocol will base their future decisions regarding protection of the stratospheric ozone layer. Extract of contents: observed changes in ozone and source gases (ozone measurements; source gases: trends and budgets); atmospheric processes responsible for the observed changes in ozone (polar ozone; tropical and midlatitude ozone; tropospheric ozone); model simulations of global ozone (stratospheric ozone and tropospheric ozone); consequences of ozone change (radiative forcing and temperature trends; surface ultraviolet radiation); scientific information for future decisions (methyl bromide; subsonic and supersonic aircraft emissions; atmospheric degradation of halocarbon substitutes; ozone depletion and global warming potentials, and future chlorine/bromine loading).
