很多人把臭氧空洞和全球变暖弄混淆,认为臭氧空洞是全球地面平均温度迅速上升的主要原因。2011年,美国耶鲁大学进行一项民意调查,61%的人认为,臭氧空洞显著地加速了全球变暖。现在,最新的电脑模型显示,臭氧空洞实际上可能只有轻微的升温效果。其实,臭氧空洞影响的是南半球极地上空的急流,即盘旋在南极上空的快速流动的气流。当南半球处于春季时,南半球极地上空 Many people confuse the ozone hole with global warming, believing that the ozone hole is the main reason for the rapid rise of the average ground temperature in the world. In 2011, a poll conducted by Yale University in the United States found that 61% of people thought that the ozone depletion significantly accelerated global warming. Now, the latest computer models show that the ozone hole may actually have only a slight warming effect. In fact, the ozone hole affects the rapid flow over the polar regions of the southern hemisphere, that is, the rapid flow of air circling over the Antarctic. When the southern hemisphere is in the spring, the southern hemisphere over the polar
