Is there any hole in the ozone layer now currently?

The ozone hole is in the south pole. It is over Antarctica.


Which hemesphere is the hole in the ozone layer?

The hole is in the southern Hemisphere. It is at the south pole.


Where does the hole in the ozone layer occur?

The largest repeating ozone hole is in the ozone layer over the south pole. The continent under it is Antarctica.


Is the ozone layer opening?

No at the moment. The ozone hole at the south pole has formed and is closing. The hole at the north pole probably has not started forming yet.


What country has the thinnest ozone layer?

The hole in the ozone layer only occurs over the poles during the end of the winter at each pole. The only large thinning area occurs in the Antarctic. This is because of the long winter nights preventing the sun from making more ozone. Once the polar night ends, the hole repairs itself. The Arctic hole is referred to as the dimple by NASA because of the small thinning that occurs over that pole.


The largest hole in the ozone layer is located above?

The pole that is having late winter / early spring.See "Where is the hole in the ozone layer?"

Depletion of ozone layer and formation of ozone hole in polar regions?

Unrelated. Ozone holes form annually at each pole.


What is the size of the ozone layer?

It covers the Earth, with an exception of an "ozone hole" over the pole currently having winter.


Is there a hole at the North Pole?

Not a hole, but there was a large ozone layer hole right above the South Pole. That ozone hole has diminished in size in the last few years, effectively "healing".


When was the massive hole in the ozone layer over the Antarctica first discovered?

The ozone hole first appeared when the ozone layer first appeared. The only variable is the "size" of the hole, and the ozone concentration in the "hole". The pole of the Earth that is experiencing winter receives none of the UV that makes ozone (for like a month or more), and ozone naturally decays with time. TThe ozone hole is a normal feature of our ozone layer. It appears each year when it is winter at one of our poles. So it first appeared when the ozone layer appeared. We first noticed the ozone hole in 1985, above Antartica. One forms over the Arctic pole too when it is winter there. They heal closed again once sunlight reaches the pole. Its not so much the presence or absence of an ozone hole, but its size that is important. It is important to look out for the ozone hole
