Hole In Antarctic Ozone Layer May Be On The Mend
2013-02-09 22:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: According to satellite data, the most recent hole in the ozone layer measured over Antarctica was the smallest it has been in ten years. Other long-term research studies also indicate that the Earth`s ozone layer seems to be on the mend thanks to international agreements to protect this vital layer of the atmosphere. Continuing the work started by ERS-2 and Envisat satellites, imaging from the European Space Agencys (ESA) MetOp weather satellite showed the yearly hole over Antarctica to be at...

Video feature: is the oil and gas industry increasing ozone formation?
2013-02-07 01:00:00| Hydrocarbons Technology
Researchers from CIRES in the US have discovered a link between elevated volcanic compounds in the atmosphere, which contribute to unhealthy ground-ozone formation, and oil and gas facilities. This led them to ask the question - is the oil and gas in

Ocean Circulation Disrupted By A Thinning Antarctic Ozone Layer
2013-02-01 19:04:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: The impact of the depleting Antarctic ozone layer on both the shifting direction of the Southern Hemispheres jet stream and the way in which the waters of the nearby southern oceans mix together is the topic of research published in this weeks edition of the journal Science. In one study, a team of researchers led by earth scientist Darryn W. Waugh of Johns Hopkins University wrote that the hole in the regions ozone layer has caused subtropical intermediate waters to become younger and upwelling,...
