abstract = {Photochemical reactions with the reactive halogen atoms Cl
and Br mostly cause stratospheric ozone depletion. The
chlorine- and bromine-containing very short-lived species
(VSLS), which have an atmospheric lifetime of less than six
months, play an essential role in stratospheric total
bromine loading. However, there is considerable uncertainty
about the geographical distribution of their sources, and
therefore, it is challenging to reproduce the observations.
In order to describe the stratospheric or regional abundance
of bromine from VSLS, it is of great importance to quantify
the lower boundary conditions of these species. In order to
increase our understanding of the role of brominated species
in the stratosphere, the Chemical Lagrangian Model of the
Stratosphere (CLaMS) has been used to investigate the global
surface mixing ratio and lower boundary conditions for the
simulation in this thesis. The simulation uses a ‘top-down
approach, where atmospheric measurements from aircraft are
used in combination with models to quantify and refine the
lower boundary emissions. The findings of this thesis reveal
that the simulation incorporating a monthly global lower
boundary, featuring notable seasonal and zonal variations,
exhibits enhanced concordance with observations obtained
during the SouthTRAC campaign. However, the elevated mixing
ratio of CHBr3 and CH2Br2 in the upper atmosphere was not
confirmed by climatological upper tropospheric and
stratospheric data, presumably due to slow up- ward
transport. Moreover, the exceedingly high values detected in
specific regions at the estimated lower boundary are likely
attributed to the limited available observations from the
SouthTRAC campaign. This underscores the necessity for
additional observations during spring and summer, as well as
observation data from higher latitudes in the Northern
Hemisphere, to comprehensively construct the lower boundary
distribution of CHBr3 and CH2Br2.},
