Global Earth Observation and Monitoring
of the Atmosphere

 

Key Questions

  • How fast will O3 recover at mid- and tropical latitudes?
     
  • Will Antarctic O3 depletion stabilize?
     
  • Will Arctic O3 loss increase?
     
  • At what rate will stratospheric halogen loading continue to decrease?
jungfraujoch
Temporal evolution of inorganic chlorine content above Jungfraujoch (upper pannel) and organic chlorine at the Earth surface.
Temporal evolution of inorganic chlorine content above Jungfraujoch (upper pannel) and organic chlorine at the Earth surface.

Objectives
  • Continued monitoring of O3, NO2, BrO, Cly/Fy, T, H2O, aerosol/PSC from ground (NDACC) and space
  • Homogenisation and consistency of time series
  • Identify links between stratospheric O3 and climate changes.
