From measured distributions the inventory of CCl3F in the total stratosphere in April and October 1974 is 0.2 Tg. Assuming a box model of atmospheric transport, the observed stratospheric inventories agree with the measured tropospheric concentrations and the industrial production rates when the photolysis half-life of a CCl3F in the stratosphere is 2-4 yr. This corresponds to a total atmospheric hafl-life of 15-30 yr.
