A Yale study reveals that elevated marine iodine concentrations disrupted the stabilization of Earth’s ozone layer, delaying ...

The ozone hole over Antarctica in 2024 measured the seventh smallest since global recovery efforts began in the early 1990s, ...

New research shows iodine in Earth’s early atmosphere delayed the ozone layer’s stabilization, affecting life evolution.

For Antarctic wildlife, exposure to the Sun's damaging rays has increased in recent years, scientists say. A hole in the ozone layer - the protective barrier of gas in the upper atmosphere - now ...

which kept the temperature of the ozone layer over Antarctica consistently cold. Ozone depletion is directly related to the temperature in the stratosphere, which is the layer of the atmosphere ...

“This OMPS instrument allows us to more closely see the vertical development of Antarctic ozone depletion in the lower stratosphere where the ozone hole occurs.” NASA and NOAA have been ...

A recent study even found that Antarctic wildlife such as seals and penguins are at greater risk of getting sunburnt due to ...

East Antarctica, the researchers say, has become colder, windier and drier due to the combined effects of climate change and ozone depletion. Four things you should know about Antarctica "The ...

From brutal depletion to a promising rebound ... Penguins and seals in Antarctica are getting scorched. Without sufficient ozone to shield them, these animals face sunburns and health issues.

Scientists first became aware of the depletion of the ozone layer in 1985, when British researchers in Antarctica were measuring the amount of ozone in the skies above. They found that ozone levels ...

Colder temperatures, diminished sunlight, and weather patterns over the Antarctic force Earth’s ozone layer to experience significant depletion during the southern hemisphere’s winter and ...
