In the mid‐1970s, it was recognized that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were strong
greenhouse gases that could have substantial impacts on radiative forcing of climate …

The lifetime of nitrous oxide, the third‐most‐important human‐emitted greenhouse gas, is
based to date primarily on model studies or scaling to other gases. This work calculates a …

The amended and adjusted Montreal Protocol has continued to reduce emissions and
atmospheric abundances of most controlled ozone-depleting substances. By 2012, the total …

This chapter concerns atmospheric changes in ozone-depleting substances (ODSs), such
as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), halons, chlorinated solvents (eg, CCl 4 and CH 3 CCl 3) and …

Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is a greenhouse gas with one of the highest radiative efficiencies
in the atmosphere as well as an important indicator of transport time scales in the …

Large and effective reductions in emissions of long-lived ozone-depleting substance (ODS)
are being achieved through the Montreal Protocol, the effectiveness of which can be seen in …

Ozone-depleting substances emitted through human activities cause large-scale damage to
the stratospheric ozone layer, and influence global climate. Consequently, the production of …

Recent studies show that the Asian summer monsoon anticyclone (ASMA) transports
emissions from the rapidly industrializing nations in Asia into the tropical upper troposphere …

This paper provides a comprehensive description of OSCAR v2. 2, a simple Earth system
model. The general philosophy of development is first explained, it is then followed by a …

Perfluorocarbons (PFCs) are very potent and long-lived greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere, released predominantly during aluminium production and semiconductor …
