  • Title: Estimates of stratospheric pollution by an analytic model.
    Author: Hunten DM.
    Journal: Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A; 1975 Dec; 72(12):4711-5. PubMed ID: 1061065.
    Abstract:
    With suitable choices of the height profile of eddy diffusion coefficient, the vertical flow of an inert tracer is given by an analytic solution. Odd nitrogen, or NOX, from aircraft exhausts can be regarded as such a tracer, and the amount in the stratosphere resulting from a source of a given strength can be immediately calculated. The resulting destruction of ozone is then estimated with the help of a formula obtained from earlier work.
