Apart from the smaller size (as it was in 1988) the Antarctic ozone hole split into two holes during late September, an event seen for the first time since global maps for the stratosphere of the southern hemisphere bacame available (Kondratyev and Varotsos 2002). According to the September 30 Press releasw from NASA and NOAA (NASA/NOAA 2002), this year's warmer than normal temperatures around the edge of the polar vortex over Antarctic are responsible for the smaller ozone loss (Varotsos 2002) [fig.1].
