This paper is a review of research and present knowledge on ozone layer losses during the winter in the Arctic and Antarctic. Heterogeneous chemical reactions in polar stratospheric clouds and sulfate aerosols are discussed. Methods for determining actual ozone losses are discussed, with particular emphasis on the Arctic ozone layer.
