Hi,

I am sorry but I don’t think I can help on ways of doing a working experimental model on ozone depletion. Most experiments of which I am aware would require rather large reduced pressure gas chambers and rather expensive analysis equipment, well beyond the budgets/respppurces of amateur scientists. It might be possible to build a computer simulation or model, or analyze other researchers observations(like sattelight images) , but otherwise I don’t have a good idea of how to make this idea feasible. You might be able to find a research scientist doing this work and possibly visit his laboratory.
Otherwise it might be a good idea to look for another topic if you must produce a working model.

Regretfully,

Barrett L Tomlinson

Hi,

I have found one promising lead for a practical science fair project on demonstrating ozone depletion in a woriing model:

it is too expensive. i need a cheap good model
