[more ▼] The german HGF virtual institute PEP (Pole-Equator-Pole) has been established in 2004 in order to investigate the variability of atmospheric trace constituents along a north-south transection. Within PEP the HGF centres AWI and FZK as well as the german Universities of Bremen, Karlsruhe and Potsdam combine their knowledge and capabilities in ground-based measurements and global and regional modelling of atmospheric trace constituents and aerosols. Here we present results of long-term measurements of the stratospheric column of HCl, ClONO2, HF, and O3 obtained at the different PEP stations in the northern hemisphere and in addtion at Jungfraujoch. All stations are affiliated to the NDACC (Network for the Detection of Atmospheric Composition Change). The measured time series are compared with long-term model calculations performed with a state of the art 2-D model of the University of Bremen and the 3-D CTM KASIMA. Please note, that the lowest altitude for the determination of the total columns is about 7 km leading to a slight underestimation w.r.t. the measurements.

[more ▼] Reactive inorganic chlorine plays a crucial role in the stratospheric ozone depletion. To stabilize and enable a recovering of the stratospheric ozone layer, the Montreal protocol and its amendments and adjustments have been progressively implemented to reduce or even stop the production and emission of important chlorinated source gases (CFCs, HCFCs, CCl4, CH3CCl3, and Halons). As these source gases are photolysed in the stratosphere into inorganic chlorine and fluorine, respectively, the turn over of the inorganic chlorine (HCl and ClONO2) and slowing down of fluorine (HF and COF2) reservoirs act as a verification of the effectiveness of these protocols. Here we present results of long-term measurements of the stratospheric column of HCl, ClONO2, and HF obtained at different stations in the northern hemisphere (Ny Alesund, Kiruna, Zugspitze, Jungfraujoch, Izana, all affiliated to the NDACC, Network for the Detection of Atmospheric Composition Change) within the PEP (Pole- Equator-Pole) network. These time series are interpreted with model calculations performed with a state of the art 2-D model and the 3-D CTM KASIMA with respect to the determination of the slowing down or turn over, respectively. In addition, trend parameters calculated using different approaches (e.g. linear trend, bootstrap-method) will be presented and intercompared. [less ▲] Detailed reference viewed: 25 (5 ULg) |
