Despite the menacing title of “Prima Belladonna,” the first of the collection, one is immediately bewitched by the very idea of a flower shop where the gorgeously different blooms are all live stand-ins for musicians and opera singers (such as a “delicate soprano mimosa”) and where the owner of this hard-to-manage “chloro florist” establishment eventually confronts “an audio-vegetative armageddon.”

Aerosols catalyze the destruction of stratospheric ozone by chloro-radicals.

Atmospheric research quickly revealed that the chloro -, bromo - and part of the nitric oxide (NO) radicals entered the stratosphere because the original compounds from which they are formed are not destroyed by OH-radicals in the troposphere, as happens with most organic and inorganic gaseous pollutants.

The majority of these chloro-radicals (probably more than 90%) is produced by human activity.

The BrOx concentrations are quite low and the largest contribution to ozone destruction comes from chloro-radicals.

There is no outflow and with reduced inflows and high evaporation the chloro-carbonate alkaline water is subject to marked 3 - 4 m seasonal fluctuations in level and is becoming increasingly saline though it is drinkable.
