To confirm the direct link between the smoke and ozone depletion, they also injected a cloud of smoke particles into a three-dimensional model to simulate the suspected chemical reactions.

A new study finds that changes in the dynamical processes associated with observed ozone depletion are largely responsible for the upper-stratospheric warming in the Antarctic.

The 1985 discovery of the Antarctic ozone hole confirmed CFC-caused ozone depletion. Although bans on such chemicals have helped slow ozone depletion, evidence suggests ozone depletion persisted.
