abstract = {A number of studies have reported empirical estimates of
ozone loss in the Arctic vortex. They have used satellite
and in situ measurements and have principally covered the
Arctic winters in the 1990s. While there is qualitative
consistency between the patterns of ozone loss, a
quantitative comparison of the published values shows
apparent disagreements. In this paper we examine these
disagreements in more detail. We choose to concentrate on
the five main techniques (Match, Systeme d'Analyse par
Observation Zenithale (SAOZ)/REPROBUS, Microwave Limb
Sounder (MLS), vortex average descent, and the Halogen
Occultation Experiment (HALOE) ozone tracer approach).
Estimates of the ozone losses in three winters (1994/1995,
1995/1996 and 1996/1997) are recalculated so that the same
time periods, altitude ranges, and definitions of the Arctic
vortex are used. This recalculation reveals a remarkably
good agreement between the various estimates. For example, a
superficial comparison of results from Match and from MLS
indicates a big discrepancy (2.0+/-0.3 and 0.85 ppmv,
respectively, for air ending at similar to460 K in March
1995). However, the more precise comparisons presented here
reveal good agreement for the individual MLS periods
(0.5+/-0.1 versus 0.5 ppmv; 0.4+/-0.2 versus 0.3-0.4 ppmv;
and 0.16+/-0.09 ppmv versus no significant loss). Initial
comparisons of the column losses derived for 1999/2000 also
show good agreement with four techniques, giving 105 DU
(SAOZ/REPROBUS), 80 DU (380-700 K partial column from Polar
Ozone and Aerosol Monitoring (POAM)/REPROBUS), 85+/-10 DU
(HALOE ozone tracer), and 88+/-13 (400-580 partial column
from Match). There are some remaining discrepancies with
ozone losses calculated using HALOE ozone tracer relations;
it is important to ensure that the initial relation is truly
representative of the vortex prior to the period of ozone
loss.},
