Abstract
Calculations using a photochemical box model from mid-January to early March 1992 show the return from perturbed levels of ClO(x) to near ba ckground levels, and the associated rise of ClONO2. The calculated val ues of ClONO2 in an in-vortex, background aerosol scenario are in good agreement with those observed by the balloon borne MIPAS-B limb sound er. Implications for ozone loss are discussed.
