Investigation of Arctic ozone depletion sampled over midlatitudes during the Egrett campaign of spring / summer 2000
A unique halocarbon dataset has been obtained using the Australian high altitude research aircraft, the Grob G520T Egrett, during May–June 2000 with GC instrument (DIRAC), which has been previously deployed on balloon platforms. The halocarbon data generally shows a good anticorrelation with ozone data obtained simultaneously from commercial sensors. On 5 June 2000, at 380 K, the Egrett entered...
متن کاملThe influence of polar vortex ozone depletion on NH mid-latitude ozone trends in spring
Reverse domain-filling trajectory calculations have been performed for the years 1993, 1995, 1996, 1997, and 2000 to calculate the spreading of ozone depleted air from the polar vortex to midlatitudes in spring. We find that for these years with massive Arctic ozone depletion the zonal mean total ozone column at midlatitudes is reduced with between 7 and 12 DU in the April-May period. The polar...

متن کاملStratospheric Ozone Depletion: a Review of Concepts and History
Stratospheric ozone depletion through catalytic chemistry involving man-made chlorofluorocarbons is an area of focus in the study of geophysics and one of the global environmental issues of the twentieth century. This review presents a brief history of the science of ozone depletion and describes a conceptual framework to explain the key processes involved, with a focus on chemistry. Observatio...
متن کاملUltraviolet radiation and its impacts on agriculture and forests
Although ultraviolet radiation (400–280 nm) comprises only a small portion of the solar spectrum, it has a disproportionately large photobiological effect on both plants and animals due to its absorption by important biological molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids. This is particularly true in the UV-B (320–280 nm). Ultraviolet radiation has shaped life and its evolution on Earth for as...
