Short summary
A lack of policy-relevant metrics for hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) regulated in the Montreal Protocol is addressed by providing reliably estimated metrics for all HCFCs included in the protocol. This research provides reliable policy-relevant metrics (e.g., atmospheric lifetimes, ozone depletion and global warming potentials) based on well-established estimation methods. The results from this work provide the Montreal Protocol the information needed for informed policy decisions.
