Description
In this work we provide an update through 2018 of the evolution of changes in the zonal mean vertical distribution of ozone from a number of models participating in the CCMI phase 1 project, using ozone data from the REF-C2 series of simulations. Trends are calculated for the pre- and post-2000 periods, in accordance to the regression analysis and tools presented in the LOTUS SPARC Project and compared to satellite-derived trends for the same period. Results are compared to similar analysis from the fixed-ODS and fixed-GHG simulations pertaining to the same set of CCMI models in order to disentangle and quantify the influences of decreasing ODSs and GHGs on ozone recovery.
