C. Changes to the Ozone Secretariat website invitation for suggestions The Ozone Secretariat is in the process of making changes to the Ozone website.

The amount for the CAP programme had to be re calculated due to the fact that the assumption of the disbursement of money for annual programmes in the same year (as in the May report) had to be changed.

Current state of the ozone layer.

Urge all data centres to develop procedures for the prompt submission of their ozone, UV, and ancillary ozone and climate related data to the World Ozone and Ultraviolet Data Centre (WOUDC).

Climate Change 960 million

Ozone depletion 50 million

Therefore, there is no record at the NOU about stock of ODS available in these areas.

First, over the next few weeks, the Secretariat will be making technical changes that will facilitate the transfer of the website to its own dedicated servers.

The other problem is they're right in the ozone layer, and I'd prefer them above the ozone layer.

That information was in agreement with the data reported by the Ozone Secretariat, except that UNEP had reported that ODS licensing had been established in the Marshall Islands in 2004 and UNDP had reported that ODS regulation and licensing systems had been enacted in Sierra Leone but were still awaiting signature.

It also requests other Parties to report on their activities and would be pleased to post all Parties' submissions on the Convention website.

Noting that dealing with obsolete equipment at the end of its useful life and the remaining ozone depleting substances was important for the protection of the ozone layer, he pointed out that the replacement of such equipment and the recovery and destruction of the ozone depleting substances it contained posed technical and financial challenges for Parties operating under Article 5.

In addition, the Ozone Secretariat, in cooperation with WMO, organized the Vienna Convention Bureau meeting and the sixth meeting of Ozone Research Managers of the Parties to the Vienna Convention in conjunction with the anniversary ceremony.

It's not hard it's just three oxygen atoms.

Trafficking in ozone depleting substances

Cooperation with the NOU and industry associations would be useful in such cases, and reports need to be prepared and exchanged between customs and the NOU.

The establishment of an ozone office, with support from UNDP, was approved in 1997.

As noted above, the Ozone Secretariat took the opportunity of the third meeting of the Preparatory Committee for the Development of a Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management (SAICM) to share experiences in the area of ozone protection with those involved in this evolving regime.

WMO's World Ozone and Ultraviolet Data Centre (WOUDC), operated by the Meteorological Service of Canada in Toronto, is the primary repository of the world's ozone data.

Tropospheric Ozone Tropospheric ozone has just been recognized as a potentially important greenhouse gas.

Based upon re calculation of funding requirement for MDI conversion in one country.

The workshopMeeting was opened by Mr. Paul Horwitz, Deputy Executive Secretary of the Ozone Secretariat.

Illegal trade in ozone depleting substances is controlled by the 1987 Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, which aims to gradually reduce and finally phase out all ozone depleting substances.

Future ozone concentrations are mainly driven by the changes in stratospheric halogen loading, with ozone recovery occurring after the peak of halogen loading.

There are a number of new unanswered questions with respect to expected ozone recovery and the interrelationship between ozone and climate change.

At the Ozone Secretariat's request, the Commission was invited to note decision XVI 11 and to request the secretariat of the International Plant Protection Convention to cooperate with the Ozone Secretariat to coordinate work on this issue.

Report by the Ozone Secretariat on the status of the trust fund for financing activities on research and systematic observations relevant to the Vienna Convention and related institutional arrangements

Research on solar physics has mainly contributed to the development of the weather and climate model and ozone observations, while research on the solar terrestrial relationship has been mainly intended to complement ozone observations and establish the advantage of the ionosphere for radio communications and navigation.

In 2004, the size of the ozone hole was smaller than the average over the past decade, although the total amount of ozone destroyed, which relates to the size, depth and persistence of the ozone hole, was estimated to be much higher than most years in the past decade.
