Abstract On the basis of data obtained by the Halogen Occultation Experiment (HALOE) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) box model calculations are performed to investigate the ozone budget in the upper stratosphere. The HALOE data comprise measurements of major source gases and key chemical species involved in the ozone destruction cycles. In comparison to earlier calculations using version 17 of the HALOE data, the calculated ozone destruction rate increases when the updated data version 18 is used. However, as with the previous study using version 17 of the HALOE data, no evidence for a significant model ozone deficit is found.
