Stratospheric Pollution

Author : Martyn P. Chipperfield

Published in: Air Pollution Sources, Statistics and Health Effects

Publisher: Springer US

Excerpt

Chemical transport model
Three-dimensional model of atmospheric chemistry used to simulate past and present changes.
Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC)
Class of chemical compound containing chlorine, fluorine, and carbon.
Coupled chemistry-climate model (CCM)
Version of three-dimensional atmospheric climate model with detailed interactive chemistry. Used to simulate past ozone changes and to predict the future ozone layer.
Montreal protocol
International agreement to limit and phase out production and emission of chlorine- and bromine-containing ozone-depleting substances.
Ozone
Molecule containing three oxygen atoms (O 3).
Ozone-depleting substance (ODS)
General term for compounds which, when broken down in the atmosphere, can release chemical species that destroy ozone.
Ozone hole
Popular name given to the large seasonal reduction in column ozone over Antarctica, which currently occurs from August to October each year.
Stratosphere
Region of atmosphere from about 10–18 km to 50 km altitude. Contains 90% of atmospheric ozone in the ozone layer.
Very short-lived species (VSLS)
Source gas with an atmospheric lifetime less than about 6 months.
