Artist's Description
Satellite map showing a severe depletion or hole" in the ozone layer over Antarctica on October 5th, 1987. The hole is probably due to pollution of the atmosphere by chlorofluorocarbons used in aerosols & refrigerants. First seen in 1980, the hole has grown each year since. It reaches a maximum in October, the Antarctic spring. It is visible here as the deep blue, purple, black & pink area covering Antarctica (outlined in white) & beyond. The colours represent Dobson units, a measure of atmospheric ozone, as shown in the colour scale at right. The map was made by the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) on the American Nimbus-7 weather satellite."
