An "unexpected missing factor" may have surfaced in 1976 when the presence of trace levels of chlorine nitrate were detected in the stratosphere. The minor natural sink for ozone may furnish a way of scavenging the chlorine atoms generated from Freons, thereby reducing their effect on the ozone layer. 3, record 1, English, - chlorine%20nitrate

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
On croit que le chlore, un destructeur d'ozone, est stocké sous forme de nitrate de chlore, un élément important des nuages glacés polaires; au printemps austral (octobre), tout le chlore libéré sous l'effet du soleil entre subitement en action et ce phénomène serait à l'origine du trou d'ozone. La dissociation du nitrate de chlore libère les deux types de substances les plus destructrices pour l'ozone : le chlore et les oxydes d'azote. 2, record 1, French, - nitrate%20de%20chlore
