Transport effects on the vertical distribution of tropospheric ozone over western India

26 In situ tropospheric ozone measurements by balloon borne electrochemical concentration cell 27 (ECC) sensors above Ahmedabad in western India from May 2003 to July 2007 are presented, 28 along with an analysis of the transport processes responsible for the observed vertical ozone 29 distribution. This analysis is supported by 12-day back trajectory calculations using the 30 FLEXPART Lagrangi...

Methyl bromide under fire.

Methyl Bromide under Fire Methyl bromide is one of the most widely used pesticides in the world, a broad-spectrum fumigant effective in controlling insects, nematodes, fungi, and bacteria. Methyl bromide is also highly toxic to humans. In December 1993, the EPA listed methyl bromide as a stratospheric ozone-depleting substance subject to phase-out. The final rule, issued 1 January 1994, freezes...

Methyl bromide poisoning.

Methyl bromide is a highly volatile liquid which disperses rapidly and readily. As a fumigant it ranks amongst the most efficient because of its extremely effective penetrating power and absence of fire or explosion hazard. It is, unfortunately, highly toxic and poisoning occurs readily in circumstances of careless or inadvertent exposure. Before 1940, only 42 cases of methyl bromide poisoning ...
