The research underscores how future increases in methane emissions could significantly influence ozone recovery, particularly in the polar regions. The ozone layer, which protects life on Earth ...

Learn about the ozone hole above Antarctica that is now confirmed to be shrinking due to reductions of harmful ...

The Antarctic ozone layer is currently healing, as a result of global efforts to reduce ozone-depleting substances.

This is due to the presence of colder temperatures, which facilitate the formation of polar stratospheric clouds. These clouds accelerate chemical reactions that break down ozone molecules.

The worlds first artificial satellite, the Soviet Unions Sputnik 1, was launched in October 1957. Just three months later, it ...

Journalists are invited to an exclusive behind-the-scenes opportunity on 8 April to see exciting new missions up close in the ...

Because of the lack of tropospheric wave driving this winter-- which means less stratospheric ozone is transported from the tropics to the pole and also a stronger and colder polar vortex ...

The erosion of ozone appears to not be a large effect on the global scale, but ongoing analysis implies that enhanced polar ozone destruction will happen. Furthermore, normal atmospheric ...

Daily life at US-run Antarctic stations has already been disrupted. Scientists worry that the long-term impacts could upend not only important research but the continent’s delicate geopolitics.

The country supports some of the world’s most important satellites. But experts worry about its proximity to Russia.
