Although the #OzoneLayer is on track towards recovery, a hole over #Antarctica appears every year, peaking during September and October, when most biota is protected by snow and sea ice. Unfortunately, as an indirect effect of #ClimateChange, the hole is lasting longer, until well into the summer, damaging biodiversity.

About that ozone hole..

Doesn't seem to be healing very fast - not due to #CFCs necessarily but a quirk of the #Climate system means a colder #Stratosphere - which is delaying things.
Really good piece from my colleagues at DMI on it (in danish but DeepL works really well for translation):

A while ago, someone got really angry at me for calling BS on a claim that satellites cause ozone depletion. Crazy, right? But it led me down a rabbit hole, which I’ll summarize here.

🌐Today marks the International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer.

With its data, #CopernicusAtmosphere plays a major role in understanding the #OzoneLayer.
