Abstract: From remote measurements taken by an aircraft over the Arctic, it seems that bromine (chemical species of which destroy ozone) may occur in significant amounts in the troposphere there. It is thought that natural processes at the sea- or ice-surface create the bromine in molecular form, and the authors propose a mechanism whereby it is lofted into the troposphere. How important tropospheric bromine might be globally remains to be seen.
