Letters to the Editor Ozone Hole Split Letters to the Editor The Southern Hemisphere Ozone Hole Split in 2002

Among the most important aspects of the atmospheric pollution problem are the anthropogenic impacts on the stratospheric ozone layer, the related trends of the total ozone content drop and the solar ultraviolet radiation enhancement at the Earth's surface level. During September 2002, the ozone...
