Ozone Hole




SVS >> Ozone Hole

Movie ID Title
Side-by-side comparison 3586 What Would have Happened to the Ozone Layer if Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) had not been Regulated?
NASA has monitored changes in Antarctic ozone levels since 1979.  In September 2002, the Antarctic ozone hole split into two parts. 3264 Smithsonian Exhibit: Antarctic Ozone Sequence 1979 through 2004
NASA has been recording ozone values since 1979.  This animation shows high concentration of ozone in red.  It shows low concentration of ozone, also known as the ozone hole, in purple.  Notice that the Ozone Hole did not develop until the mid 1980s. 3137 Antarctic Ozone Sequence 1996 through 2004, Data Dropouts Removed
The TOMS instrument on the Earth Probe spacecraft has recorded daily ozone values from July 25, 1996.   Areas of red show the highest concentration of ozone measured in dobson units, DU.  Areas of purple indicate the lowest concentration, commonly known as the ozone hole. The top plot shows the amount of ozone concentration measured in DU.  The bottom plot shows the spatial area in Millions of Kilometers, MKm, of the ozone hole. 3136 Antarctic Ozone Sequence 1996 through 2004
Total ozone density over the South Pole, as measured by Earth Probe TOMS in 1999 2836 Ozone Visualization Comparison
This short video describes the status of the stratospheric ozone hole. 10255 Exploring Ozone
