Ozone gas in the stratosphere (upper atmosphere) absorbs ultraviolet light, thus protecting living things from the sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation. Man-made chemicals and weather conditions over Antarctica combine to deplete stratospheric ozone concentrations during the winter months there. (Data from Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer [TOMS] project). Sensor: TOMS/TOMS. Data Start Date: 1/1/79. Data End Date: 7/31/05.

Scientists use data from NASA’s Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) to measure the relative amount of aerosols—solid or liquid particles suspended in the atmosphere. Aerosol types detected by the TOMS Aerosol Index include desert dust, smoke and volcanic ash located at least 2 km (1.2 miles) above the surface.Every day, TOMS measures how much UV radiation is absorbed within the atmosphere and how much is reflected back up into space. These measures directly relate to how much aerosol is...

The laser inside the interferometer operates under low power, effectively eliminating high voltage dangers. It has ultra-high stability, which allows almost drift-free sampling of the interferogram. This leads to reduced distortion in the spectral data products.

The circle indicates the region of sky from which HETE saw the burst. The box, inset, indicates where the X-ray and optical afterglow of the burst was ultimately found. The bright X-ray afterglow of the burst is apparent in the middle of this box. The colors indicate the intensity of the X-ray emission (1.0-7.0 keV) as seen by the Advanced CCD...

This X-ray image of NGC 4697 was observed on January 15, 2000 for 11 hours with the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS). Chandra observations of this spiral galaxy and 3 other nearby galaxies have revealed a possible new class of X-ray sources. These mysterious X-ray sources, marked with green diamonds in the version on the left, are called "quasisoft" sources because they have a temperature in the range of one to four million degrees Celsius.

FTS could generate higher resolution data products faster and more often for proposed atmospheric science missions in the next millennium. The result would be an increased ability to provide the science community with improved global imaging, better global weather and climate forecasting models, and an unprecedented capability to monitor gases and aerosols.

This "ozone hole" has extended to cover an area as large as 10.5 million square miles in September 1998. The previous record of 10.0 million square miles was set in 1996.The Antarctic ozone hole develops each year between late August and early October.
