Why is ozone hole not formed over arctic region?

Answer 1

The lower stratosphere over the south pole is the coldest part of the earth.The fast-rate of depletion of ozone layer in the Antarctica is attributed to this extremely low temperatures.This low temperature leads to the condensation of water and nitric acid to form what is called 'polar stratospheric clouds'
.The presence of these cloud particles are responsible for the ozone-decomposing chemical reactions.
In the north pole(Arctic),the temperatures are several degrees higher and the 'polar stratospheric clouds' are less common and the ozone-depletion rate is less.

Answer 2

The "hole" you allude to has been formed from the considerable amount of waste dumped into the air from factories, cars, and businesses. In other words, large cities and populations are the major causes of this. It is therefore that the hole is started in those regions. If those regions continue to be as wasteful as they are, the hole could expand and grow into the arctic region. As of yet, no major cities have formed in that region.

Answer 3

no plants use UV light they use the frequencies closest to blue light. UV light is a form of ionising radiation and when it hits cells it can cause damage to its DNA and will most likely kill it. this is why you get sun burnt and skin cancer if you stay in the sun for too long. the ozone hole is situated over Antarctica, it is keped there by strong winds. ozone is formed when UV light strikes oxygen molecules. ozone is slightly unstable so it can give up one oxygen atom and return back to oxygen gas. because of this ozone is continuously being destroyed and created the problem is CFCs increase the rate at which ozone is broken up and so they reduce the amount of ozone protecting us from UV light. no the hole in the ozone layer wont allow heat to radiate back into space. although ozone is a greenhouse gas it is only present in very small amounts, any human emissions of CFCs will also counteract any loss of greenhouse gasses. the wavelengths ozone absorbs means that it will make very little difference anyway.

Answer 4

Because arctic regions don't produce the harmful air pollutants that destroy the ozone.

Answer 5

Actually, ozone depletion is occurring over both the Arctic and Antarctic. In the Antarctic it is more severe, but it is occurring at both poles.

Answer 6

The ozone DOES dissipate over the Arctic, as well as over the Antarctic, I thought.

But the reaction has less ice, reflection, cold, etc. in the Arctic, and so long, icecaps and permafrost, the idiots think it will stay, won't legalize POT to make 25,000 market-leading, CO2-neutral PRODUCTS, and then, they want NUKES and call this, 'nukuler.' DDD, DDD, DDD, DDD.

DDDDDDDDDDDDD!! Spell, Nick-OUR-agua! Carlos? Yes you, spell something.

Answer 7

One explanation was due to earth's polar magnetism. the nations especially the north pole nations dump all the pollutants on their part of the sky. The south pole attracts all these pollutants and the hole is more prevalent in the southern pole or the Antartic.

That was one old explanation. I am not aware of any new theories in this direction.

Answer 8

Because the solar rays r most powereful around the equater
