NASA and NOAA recently announced good news concerning the ozone hole. What are lessons about science, policy and skepticism for other challenges?

In the mid-1980s, scientists published a startling finding–a giant hole in the ozone layer over Antarctica. That’s the ...

The ozone layer is a part of the Earth’s atmosphere that absorbs much of the sun’s harmful ultraviolet light. In 1985, researchers noticed that the ozone layer was growing thinner above the Antarctic.

It's been 40 years since groundbreaking research announced the discovery of a hole in the ozone layer, a revelation that launched a rapid and successful effort to ban chemicals in hairspray, deodorant ...

It has now been almost four decades since scientists discovered the growing hole in Earth's ozone layer. But climate researchers now say that the protective shield, around 20 miles above our planet's ...

近日，北京化工大学刘永春教授团队在上层臭氧入侵对地面臭氧浓度和二次气溶胶生成的影响方面取得重要进展，相关成果以“Upper-layer ozone intrusion promotes wintertime secondary aerosol formation on the ground”为题，发表在National Science Review（《国家科学评论》，NSR）。这项研究提出了基于地 ...

Scientists stated that worldwide ozone layer protection measures have been a major achievement, showing that harmful gases are dropping faster than projected. Experts, according to Science Alert, ...

Three decades ago, the global community came together to protect Earth’s ozone layer from damaging chemicals. This effort, one of humanity’s greatest environmental achievements, offers a promising ...

On 16 September, the world will mark the International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer. It was on this day, 35 years ago, that the Montreal Protocol, considered one of the most significant ...

The ozone layer is a part of Earth’s atmosphere that captures some of the Sun’s ultraviolet (UV) light emissions. When the ozone layer is compromised, its ability to absorb radiation weakens, allowing ...

In a revelation highlighting the fragile balance of our planet's atmosphere, scientists have uncovered an unexpected link between massive wildfire events and the chemistry of the ozone layer. Using ...

Nearly 30 years after the landmark Montreal Protocol went into effect to protect our planet's stratospheric ozone layer, there is finally evidence that the protective blanket that shields us from the ...
