“Evolution of ozone-depleting and climate-relevant halocarbon emissions over Europe: An inverse modeling perspective”

Dienstag, 04. Dezember 2012, 15:00-0:00

Halogenated hydrocarbons in the atmosphere are mostly synthetic products of the chemical industry designed for a wide range of applications. Due to their ozone depletion potential the chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC) as well as the bromine-containing halons and methylbromide (CH3Br) have been banned or regulated under the Montreal Protocol. The chlorine-free hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), introduced as a replacement for CFCs and HCFCs, in turn, have been regulated under the Kyoto Protocol due to their often large global warming potential. Ground-based in-situ observations as performed by the global network AGAGE provide invaluable information on trends and sources of these compounds to check the validity of the reported emissions and their compliance with reduction targets. In this talk I will present results of recent inverse modelling studies applied to observations from Jungfraujoch, Mace Head and Monte Cimone to quantify European halocarbon emissions and their trends during the last 10 years. I will particularly focus on emissions of methylbromide and selected HCFCs and HFCs and will contrast the results with emission trends in China.
