Antarctic ozone hole to recover later than previously expected

We all know hat the ozone hole over the Antarctic is recovering. But, it is recently discovered that it will recover nearly 20 years later than previously thought — around 2068! This has been concluded by NASA and other agencies’ scientists.

A new tool, developed by NASA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the National Center for Atmospheric Research scientists has made this discovery. The tool is a math-based computer model that is capable of predicting the timing of ozone hole recovery. The findings will be published in the recent Geophysical Research Letters.
