The potential impact on atmospheric ozone and temperature of increasing trace gas concentrationsThe response of the atmosphere to emission of chlorofluorocarbons and other chlorocarbons and to increasing concentrations of other radiatively active trace gases is calculated using a coupled, one-dimensional, time-dependent chemical-radiative-transport model. The model predicts future changes in the ozone content and in the temperature based on several possible time-dependent scenarios of future atmospheric emissions. The sensitivity of the atmospheric responses to the values adopted for parameters such as the eddy diffusion coefficient for vertical transport and the atmospheric budget of nitrogen oxides is estimated and discussed.
