The ozone layer is a part of Earth’s atmosphere ... Another pair of chemists quickly followed their lead. In 1974, Mario Molina and Sherwood Rowland published a paper in Nature detailing the ...

The forgotten story of the hole in the ozone layer - and how the world came together ... to phase out CFC chemical production; Professor Mario Molina, who won the Nobel Prize for identifying ...

In Chile's Antarctic bases, Eduardo Frei and Bernardo O'Higgins the Dobson scale readings dropped to 160/180 with UV reaching 5 (yellow alert) since they are located in the heart of the ozone ...

In 1974, researchers Sherwood Rowland and Mario Molina published groundbreaking ... Scientists expect the ozone layer over the Antarctic to return to pre-1980s levels by the 2060s.

It projected the ozone layer should be restored to 1980 levels over the Antarctic by around 2066. Smaller holes over the Arctic were projected to recover by 2045, and for the rest of the world in ...

In 1987, the Montreal Protocol was agreed, which led to the phase-out of CFCs and, recently, the first signs of recovery of the Antarctic ozone layer. The upper stratosphere at lower latitudes ...

A new MIT-led study confirms that the Antarctic ozone layer is healing, as a direct result of global efforts to reduce ozone-depleting substances. Scientists including the MIT team have observed ...

They then compared the results of various simulations to see how the Antarctic ozone layer changes with season and altitude, and combined these with satellite observations of the Antarctic ozone ...

After much promise and some doubt, it’s confirmed: the hole in the ozone layer over the Antarctic is recovering thanks to the global effort to reduce ozone-depleting substances. A new study led ...
