Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Ozone depletion over Antarctica 2nd October 1994
The Ozone hole over Antarctica (grey, pink and purple area at centre) as recorded on October 2nd 1994. The colours represent total ozone concentra- tion measured in Dobson Units (DU) running from grey for the lowest concentration through pink, yellow, green and brown for the highest. Land boundaries are shown as solid white lines. The ozone hole covers about 24 million square kilometres, similar in extent to the record sizes seen in 1992 and 1993, and almost fills the maximum possible extent of the hole (governed by the position of the circumpolar vortex winds). The data were taken by NASAs Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer on the Russian Meteor-03 satellite

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the alarming phenomenon of ozone depletion over Antarctica on October 2nd, 1994. The image showcases the iconic grey, pink, and purple area at the center representing the total ozone concentration measured in Dobson Units (DU). Ranging from lowest to highest concentration, these colors depict a visual representation of this environmental crisis. The land boundaries are depicted as solid white lines, emphasizing the vastness of this issue. The massive ozone hole covers approximately 24 million square kilometers, comparable in size to previous record-breaking years such as 1992 and 1993. It almost fills up the maximum possible extent governed by the position of circumpolar vortex winds. The data used for this print was collected by NASA's Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer aboard the Russian Meteor-03 satellite. This cutting-edge technology allowed scientists to monitor and document this concerning event accurately. As we gaze upon this photograph, it serves as a stark reminder of our planet's vulnerability and highlights humanity's impact on Earth's delicate balance. It is an urgent call for action towards preserving our atmosphere and combating further ozone depletion. This remarkable image is brought to us by Science Photo Library—an invaluable resource for scientific knowledge dissemination—providing us with a glimpse into Earth science that compels us all to protect our planet for future generations.
