Abstract
The 1995 Nobel Prize was awarded to Paul Crutzen, Sherwood Rowland, and Mario Molina "for their work in atmospheric chemistry, particularly concerning the formation and decomposition of ozone". Collectively, their work established atmospheric chemistry as a major focus at the end of the twentieth century. The results have drawn attention to significant environmental issues–in particular, the threat posed to the ozone layer by chlorofluorocarbons.
Supplement
A list of all recipients of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, their affiliations, and work for which the award was made is available.
