Where was an “ozone hole” discovered in the 1980s?
The ozone hole was discovered over Antarctica.
What is antarctic hole?
The "Antarctic Hole" commonly refers to the ozone hole that forms over Antarctica. It is a region in the Earth's stratosphere where the concentration of ozone is significantly depleted. This depletion is primarily caused by the presence of certain chemicals, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), which were widely used in refrigerants and aerosol propellants. Efforts have been made to reduce the production and emission of these chemicals in order to protect the ozone layer and minimize the size of the Antarctic Hole.
When does the ozone depletion process begin?
The ozone depletion process began in the late 1970s and early 1980s with the discovery of the Antarctic ozone hole. This led to the realization that human activities, specifically the release of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other ozone-depleting substances, were contributing to the thinning of the ozone layer.
Describe two common myths associated with ozone depletion?
There are many myths. One such is that ozone is located in ozonosphere and another is that ozone layer damages us.
What parts of the world is the depletion of ozone affecting?
Ozone depletion is a problem for the Antarctic region at the end of the winter months there. This is due to a lack of sunlight to the area. A much smaller thinning area occurs over the Arctic at the end of it's winter. This small thinning area is referred to as the "dimple". The idea that this is a problem is, of course a possibility. Currently, it is only a theory and the theory has serious holes in it. (pun intended) One is that the largest known "hole" happened in 1858 due to solar flares.
Where and how does the ozone depletion happen?
The ozone depletion happens in the poles mainly Arctic and Antarctic. It is due to cold temperature facilitating the depletion.
What are the threats of the ozone depletion and global warming in the Antarctic?
Ozone depletion is over Antarctica. It is because of the low temperature there.
The ozone hole is located above the?
The ozone hole is located over the antarctic region of the earth i.e. above Antarctica. It is because of the increase in the rate of depletion of ozone at lower temperature.
Does the atmosphere prevent depletion of the ozone over Antarctica?
The atmosphere does not protect the ozone depletion. It is the region where the ozone depletion occurs.
Where is ozone depletion the highest?
The ozone depletion is highest at the poles. Specially at the Antarctica region.
Where was an “ozone hole” discovered in the 1980s?
The ozone hole was discovered over Antarctica.
What is the country that is not protected by the ozone layer?
The ozone layer is a cover of ozone gas all over the earth's atmosphere so we cannot say that a country is not protected by it. However due to the intense depletion of this layer, its cover over the Antarctic region is being disappearing day by day. This may be the cause why there is less protection of ozone over the Antarctic region.

Why ozone layer depletes only over the antarctic?
The ozone layer is only depleted over the Antarctic. It is because ozone depletion requires very less temperatures. As these temperatures are only at the poles so Antarctica is the perfect place for it.
