Eastern asian emissions of anthropogenic halocarbons deduced from aircraft concentration data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The Montreal Protocol restricts production of ozone-depleting halocarbons worldwide. Enforcement of the protocol has relied mainly on annual government statistics of production and consumption of these compounds (bottom-up approach).
