The southern parts of world have ozone hole. It is because of the westerlies.

Is there any improvement of ozone layer in recent year?
Yes, there is. Ozone layer is replenishing.
Do holes in the ozone layer present a problem?
Not really. Ozone holes are a natural repeating phenomenon at each pole. Usually the holes heal shut before any significant UV-B reaches the ground.Depletion of the ozone layer is a problem, a symptom of which is this tends to make the ozone hole larger and last longer.
How fast is the ozone layer disappearing?
There is no clear evidence that the ozone layer is monotonically disappearing. Sometimes the hole is larger than others, and we believe the Kyoto protocol (banning CFCs) limited the damage we were doing to the ozone layer. Eventually those CFCs will leave the tropopause, but there will still be an ozone hole. In the winter at the poles, there is little UV to make new ozone. So if there is any water vapor, ozone will be naturally depleted.
How does the hole in the ozone layer affect weather?
Ozone is a naturally occurring greenhouse gas that helps keep the earth warm. Therefore the depletion of the ozone layer had a minor cooling effect on the world, although more than compensated for by the rise in carbon dioxide levels. Because the depletion was concentrated in the Antarctic region, this is believed to have contributed to altered wind wind patterns. The main problem with depletion of the ozone layer was not so much any effect on the weather, but the potential effect on our health, through excessive exposure to ultraviolet light.
How does hairspray destroy the ozone layer?
Not any more. The CFCs that were used as aerosols in the 1980s are responsible for the depletion of the ozone layer. These have been phased out and scientists hope the ozone layer will have recovered by about 2060.It emits gases that damage the ozone layer.
Is there any hole in ozone layer?
yes
Is there any hole in the ozone layer now currently?
The ozone hole is in the south pole. It is over Antarctica.
Does global warming cause the ozone hole?
No. There is hardly any connection between the ozone layer and global warming.
Gases in atmosphere causes break in ozone layer?
There is no actual break in the ozone layer. The "hole" is an annual event above the poles caused by the lack of sun reaching the ozone layer. CFC's are believed by some to cause a contributing change in this layer. The lagest "hole" recorded occurred decades before CFC's were created. The primary cause for ozone is lack of sun, not any gas.
Is the hole in the ozone layer getting larger?
yesbut in some parts theres no hole but the ozone is too thickThe ozone hole this (2009) winter/spring (south pole) was a little smaller than the record size. Whether Man had any part in that "improvement" through his efforts remains to be seen. Note that the ozone hole is an annual repeating phenomenon at each pole, and the southern ozone hole is naturally larger than the northern ozone hole.
Are there any objects in the ozone layer?
No they are not. the complete ozone layer contains the ozone molecules only.
How have we helped to cause the hole in the ozone layer?
The ozone hole is a natural, repeating occurence. See "How did the ozone hole occur?"We may or may not make it "deeper", start sooner, get larger, last longer, but we do not have any part in making the hole. Nature does that on her own, when it is later winter / early spring at a pole.
What are the componenets of ozone layer?
The ozone layer is a complete layer. It does not contain any other components.
What are the layers of the ozone layer?
There is no layer of ozone layer i.e. distinction. It does not consist of any layer, only a single layer is there.
What is the reason for the imbalance of the ozone layer?
The ozone layer is not "imbalanced". There is a region of low ozone concentration (the "ozone hole") that forms at the pole that has little-to-no UV from the Sun to reform ozone. The concentration at any point in the ozone layer is a function of how much UV is arrving of a wavelength of 215nm or shorter, how much scavengers / catalysts are present (including water vapor), and the local temperature (ozone also decays spontaneously without any other molecule present with time).
What is abbreviation for ozone hole?
There isn't any abbreviation. Ozone hole is the decrease in the concentration of ozone molecules.
Does any other planet have an ozone layer?
Other planets do have ozone. It is a protecting layer.
