Risks to the stratospheric ozone shield in the Anthropocene by Solomon, Susan

“…Abstract Crutzen (1974) and Crutzen and Ehhalt (1977) presented two key papers in Ambio that in Ambioexemplify how science first revealed to humankind the potential for damage to our ozone shield in the Anthropocene. Crutzen’s (1974) review is a sweeping summary of the risks to the ozone layer from supersonic aircraft, chlorofluorocarbons, as well as nuclear weapons testing and nuclear war. …”

Distinguishing the impacts of ozone-depleting substances and well-mixed greenhouse gases on Arctic stratospheric ozone and temperature trends by Rieder, Harald E., Polvani, Lorenzo M., Solomon, Susan

“…Here we provide evidence that changes in the concentrations of ozone-depleting substances (ODS), not WMGHG, have been the primary driver of observed Arctic lower stratospheric trends in both ozone and temperature. …”

The influence of iodine on the Antarctic stratospheric ozone hole by Cuevas, Carlos A, Fernandez, Rafael P, Kinnison, Douglas E, Li, Qinyi, Lamarque, Jean-François, Trabelsi, Tarek, Francisco, Joseph S, Solomon, Susan, Saiz-Lopez, Alfonso

“…Based on these observations, our modeling work shows that iodine chemistry can enhance spring ozone loss at the lower part of the Antarctic ozone hole, and even dominate the halogen-mediated ozone loss during summer. …”

An Arctic ozone hole in 2020 if not for the Montreal Protocol by Wilka, Catherine, Solomon, Susan, Kinnison, Doug, Tarasick, David

“…Without the Montreal Protocol, the already extreme Arctic ozone losses in the boreal spring of 2020 would be expected to have produced an Antarctic-like ozone hole, based upon simulations performed using the specified dynamics version of the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (SD-WACCM) and using an alternate emission scenario of 3.5 % growth in ozone-depleting substances from 1985 onwards. …”
