I was at a meeting in the #IUGG23 conference this year where a few participants expressed scepticism that the #OzoneHole was in fact healing. Sadly looks like they were right, at least this year...
Good piece on it from @esa
Ozone hole goes large again
Measurements from the Copernicus Sentinel-5P satellite show that this yearβs ozone hole over Antarctica is one of the biggest on record. The hole, which is what scientists call an βozone depleting area,β reached a size of 26 million sq km on 16 September 2023. This is roughly three times the size of Brazil.
