Trends in total atmospheric ozone from 1979-1989 were analyzed to derive the corresponding changes in the tropospheric photodissociation rate coefficient J1 for the reaction O3 + h nu (lambda less than 330 nm) - O2 + O(1D). Zonally and annually integrated trends in J1 are +3.8 +/- 2.9 percent per decade in the Northern Hemisphere and +4.1 +/- 2.7 percent per decade in the Southern Hemisphere. Changes in (OH) due to the J1 trends may have contributed to the slowing of atmospheric methane increases observed in recent years.
