Ozone in the 21st Century: Increase or Decrease ?

  • Conference paper
Atmospheric Ozone

Abstract

In order to assess the global atmospheric and climatic response to the release of various chemical pollutants, numerical models are commonly used as prognostic tools. The purpose of this paper is to use a fully coupled 1-D radiative/chemical model to simulate the future of the ozone layer and the temperature, assuming a realistic scenario of the emission of several gases such as CO2, CH4, N2O, NOx and the chloro-carbons. Another objective is to study the effect of an hypothetical high chlorine perturbation. With the present and projected emissions of CFCs, such a high Clx load is not expected. Nevertheless, this problem will be considered here since it reveals the non-linear behavior of the chemical system in the middle atmosphere (Cicerone et al, 1983).
