(2008-06-13) Climate Models Overheat Antarctica, New Study Finds Computer analyses of global climate have consistently overstated warming in Antarctica, concludes new research by scientists at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and Ohio State University. (2008-05-08) Ozone hole recovery may reshape southern hemisphere climate change A full recovery of the stratospheric ozone hole could modify climate change in the Southern Hemisphere and even amplify Antarctic warming, according to scientists from the University of Colorado at Boulder, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and NASA. (2008-04-25) 2007 ozone hole 'smaller than usual' The ozone hole over Antarctica has shrunk 30 percent as compared to last year's record size. According to measurements made by ESA's Envisat satellite, this year's ozone loss peaked at 27.7 million tonnes, compared to the 2006 record ozone loss of 40 million tonnes. (2007-10-04) NASA keeps eye on ozone layer amid Montreal Protocol's success NASA scientists will join researchers from around the world to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Montreal Protocol, an international treaty designed to reduce the hole in Earth's protective ozone layer. (2007-09-14) By ice floe to the North Pole At the end of August, an unusual expedition under Russian leadership will leave for the Arctic Ocean. One of the participants is Jürgen Graeser of the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, one of the research centres of the Helmholtz Association. (2007-07-23) B12 Is Also an Essential Vitamin for Marine Life B12 - an essential vitamin for land-dwelling animals, including humans - also turns out to be an essential ingredient for growing marine plants that are critical to the ocean food web and Earth's climate, scientists have found. (2007-05-21) NASA and NOAA Announce Ozone Hole is a Double Record Breaker NASA and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) scientists report this year's ozone hole in the polar region of the Southern Hemisphere has broken records for area and depth. (2006-10-23) First direct evidence that human activity is linked to Antarctic Ice Shelf collapse The first direct evidence linking human activity to the collapse of Antarctic ice shelves is published this week in the Journal of Climate. (2006-10-17) As ozone hole approaches annual peak, NASA scientists reveal latest information and images In 1987, the United States joined several other nations in signing the Montreal Protocol, an international treaty designed to protect the Earth's ozone layer by phasing out the production of a number of substances believed to be responsible for ozone depletion.
