Such particles provide surfaces for the chemical reactions that transform inactive chlorine into chlorine monoxide. In contrast to what happens in Antarctica, however, the destructive process in the Arctic does not remove enough ozone to generate an ozone hole.

Northern ozone suffered heavy winter loss

In the stratosphere, the measurements of ozone and chlorine monoxide are the most important.

Millimeter-wave environmental remote sensing of earth's atmosphere

In these new models, exotic "nonstandard' chemical reactions transform the "safe' chlorine compounds--e.g., hydrochloric acid and chlorine nitrate--into chlorine monoxide, an ozone killer.

Is the pact too little, too late?

"UARS has seen high levels of chlorine monoxide in the Northern Hemisphere," says Schoeberl, "but with the warmer temperatures, the high levels do not last as long over the Arctic." Low temperatures and sunlight are key parts of the chemical reaction that allows CFCs to attack the ozone, he explains, making the dramatic ozone loss seen over the South Pole unlikely elsewhere."

NASA identifies cause of ozone depletion

But the cold Antarctic stratosphere contains icy particles that provide a surface on which inactive chlorine compounds can convert to harmful chlorine monoxide.

Northern hemisphere ozone hits record low

Toohey and his co-workers describe measurements of chlorine monoxide made in 1988 and 1989 during a series of flights by NASA's high-altitude ER-2 research plane.

U.S. skies harbor ozone destroyer

In the new reports, researchers describe finding chlorine monoxide at levels 100 times higher than those over the United States.

Arctic ozone succumbs to chemical assault

Most imprtant, air patches in the vortex contained up to 50 times the normal amount of chlorine monoxide, a key chemical in the chain of ozone-destroying reactions.

Arctic air primed to destroy ozone

Unlike chlorine's destruction of ozone in the upper stratosphere, this pathway required the linkage of two chlorine monoxide (CIO) molecules into a fragile dimer (Cl.sub.2.O.sub.2.).

Chemistry ties CFCs firmly to ozone hole

Schoeberl, an atmospheric scientist with NASA, also notes that chlorine monoxide (ClO)--a principal chemical active in the ozone destruction--was not always present at altitudes that would account for the low ozone levels.

Antarctic ozone reaches lowest levels

This explanation would match other results from NOZE I, which found abnormally high September levels of one such form, chlorine monoxide (ClO), a molecule active in ozone destruction (SN: 5/23/87, p.326).
