Abstract
The paper presents the effect of dramatic decrease of Antarctic O3 concentration on Li 6708 Å line emission. Chemical kinetics of this line confirms that lithium emission will also be affected by O3 depletion. Intensity of the line is calculated theoretically for two Antarctic Survey Stations Halley Bay (76° S, 27° W) and McMurdo (78° S, 166° E). Calculation shows that lithium line intensity of two Antarctic Survey Stations will also be depleted dramatically.
