In more than 60% of the stations examined we have detected a clear decrease of the ozone 3-5 days after the electron flux excess. A numerical model has been applied to approximate this effect based on relativistic electron initiated nitric oxides creation in the upper mesosphere with subsequent atmospheric transport (both vertical and horizontal) towards the upper stratosphere. A first attempt of local and temporal prediction of ozone depletion because of energetic electrons impact in the middle atmosphere has been illustrated. © 2008 COSPAR.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Export Date: 2 November 2015CODEN: ASRSDCorrespondence Address: Tritakis, V.P.; Research Center for Astronomy and Applied Mathematics, Academy of Athens, Soranou Efesiou 4, 11527 Athens, Greece; email: vas@academyofathens.grReferences: Burns, A.G., Killeen, T.L., Crowley, G., Emery, B.A., Roble, R.G., On the mechanisms responsible for high latitude thermospheric composition variations during the recovery phase of a geomagnetic storm (1989) J.
