Scientists recorded a total-column ozone concentration of 102 Dobson units, the 8th-lowest level since 1986. Colder-than-average temperatures and strong winds in the stratosphere circling Antarctica ...
The ozone hole covers an area three times the size of the United States, and beats the previous record size of 10.5 million square miles that the satellite measured two years ago.
On May 16, 1985, a shocking announcement revealed a massive hole in the ozone layer above Antarctica, raising concerns about a possible increase in skin cancer and a global temperature rise of up to 2 ...
Injecting aerosols into the atmosphere – but at higher altitudes than planes can reach – could cool the climate while ...

Oct. 12, 2023 — 71 of the 162 ice shelves that surround Antarctica have reduced in volume over 25 years from 1997 to 2021, with a net release of 7.5 trillion tons of meltwater into the oceans ...
A massive and surprising change is unfolding around Antarctica. Scientists have discovered that the Southern Ocean is getting saltier, and sea ice is melting at record speed, enough to match the size ...
Thanks to the neural network, the researchers now suspect, for example, that the black hole at the center of the Milky Way is spinning almost at top speed. Its rotation axis points to Earth.
A group of researchers in Antarctica have found strange radio waves coming from below the ice. According to the results published in the Physical Review Letters, the mysterious radio waves were ...
