Analysis of record-low ozone values during the 1997 winter over Lauder, New Zealand

Low ozone concentrations over Macquarie Island during 1997 Part I: trajectory analysis

Ozone concentrations have been decreasing globally for the last 20 years in part due to increasing chlorine concentrations in the stratosphere (WMO 1999). The most dramatic example of these reductions has been identified in the high latitude southern hemisphere, where ozone levels are nearly entirely depleted in the lower stratosphere during September and October each year. This phenomenon, whi...

Record-breaking ozone loss in the Arctic winter 2010/2011: comparison with 1996/1997

We present a detailed discussion of the chemical and dynamical processes in the Arctic winters 1996/1997 and 2010/2011 with high resolution chemical transport model (CTM) simulations and space-based observations. In the Arctic winter 2010/2011, the lower stratospheric minimum temperatures were below 195 K for a record period of time, from December to mid-April, and a strong and stable vortex wa...

Introduction Conclusions References Tables Figures Back Close Full Screen / Esc Printer-friendly Version Interactive Discussion EGU Abstract A record low total ozone column of 177 DU was observed at Reading, UK, on 19 Jan-uary 2006. Low ozone values were also recorded at other stations in the British Isles and North West Europe on, and around, this date. Hemispheric maps of total ozone from the...

consequence analysis of the leakage, ignition and explosion during high pressure sour gas injection process to the oil reservoir

there is no doubt that human being needs to become integrated with industry and industry needs to be progressed, daily. on the other hand, serious events in industrial units specially in oil industries has been shown that such damages and events are industry related ones. the consequence of such events and damages which resulted in chemical and poisoned explosions and loss of life and property ...
