Zusammenfassung

Lower stratosphericin situ observationsa re usedt o quantify both the accumulated ozone loss and the ozone chemical loss rates in the Arctic polar vortex during the 1999- 2000 winter. Multiple long-lived trace gas correlations are used to identify parcels in the inner Arctic vortex whose chemical loss rates are unaffected by extra-vortex intrusions. Ozone-tracer correlations are then used to calculate ozone chemical loss rates. During the late winter the ozone chemical loss rate is found to be-46 q- 6 (1•) ppbv/day. By mid-March 2000, the accumulated ozone chemical loss is 58 q- 4 % in the lower stratosphere near 450 K potential temperature(- 19 km altitude).
