Stratospheric Ozone Depletion:
What's New and How Can It Link to Climate

Since its discovery in 1985, the ozone hole has been the subject of  
intense interest by scientists, policymakers, and the public. The  
background to this phenomenon will be briefly discussed, with a view  
to providing an update on current understanding of Antarctic ozone  
depletion. Recent studies have emphasized the key role of ozone in  
cooling the Antarctic stratosphere, and the possibility of linkages  
between changes in stratospheric and tropospheric climate has become  
a matter of increasing scientific interest. Recent studies relating  
Antarctic climate change to ozone depletion will be discussed, and  
compared with the Arctic, as well as new information on other  
latitudes, especially the tropics.
