Ozone Loss Processes

Ozone Loss Processes is a chemical mechanism referring to the set of atmospheric reactions that catalytically destroy stratospheric ozone molecules, primarily mediated by halogenated compounds, nitrogen oxides, and hydrogen radicals, thereby reducing the concentration of ozone in the Earth's protective ozone layer.
