The reports were set up to inform the Montreal Protocol and amendments about ozone depletion.

The Montreal and Vienna conventions were installed long before a scientific consensus was established.

[1] Until the 1980s, EU, NASA, NAS, UNEP, WMO and the British government had all issued further different scientific reports with dissenting conclusions.

(The bracketed 1988, 1985 and 1981 papers are precursor reports relevant to the Montreal Protocol but not directly part of this series).
