Stratospheric ozone Chlorine monoxide (ClO) Mauna Kea

Summary:

As part of the Network for the Detection of Atmospheric Composition Change (NDACC), the upper stratospheric Chlorine monoxide (ClO) measurements from the ground-based millimeter-wave instrument, extending from 1991 to 2012, was re-analyzed. The data shows a more constant and linear decrease of ClO during the period. Comparison of the data to Aura MLS shows better agreement in the 2004-2012 trend.
