Title: Ozone hole won`t worsen?

Journal Article · · Science
OSTI ID:183563

The timing was fitting. Last week, the chemistry Nobel Prize went to the researchers who first linked chlorine-containing pollutants with stratospheric ozone loss. And last week brought the climax in the annual drama of Antarctic ozone destruction, which begins when the spring sun triggers the ozone-depleting reactions. Satellite and balloon observations showed that the ozone hole is about as deep and wide as ever. But new computer modeling of hole formation suggests that future holes will be no larger.
