Scientific paper

Data characterizing the formation of the ozone hole (OH) in the Antarctic are examined. The OH is defined as the decrease of the total ozone content from 300 Dobsons unit during the IGY (1957-1958) to 120 Dobson units during September-October 1987. In 1988 the ozone content in the OH region increased significantly, up to 210 Dobson units. It is pointed out that a phenomenon similar to the OH has not been observed in the Arctic. It is concluded that the determining factors in the formation of the OH are low temperature, polar stratospheric clouds, and solar radiation. Chlorine from anthropogenic and natural sources also plays an important role.
