Study reveals devastating 15-year effect of Nuclear explosion on Ozone layer

threat of a nuclear war is something that always has humanity hanging on cliff of survival. Ever since its introduction in 1940s, world has been talking about devastation it can cause on all forms of life on this planet. A new collaborative study conducted by Rutgers University and National Center for Atmospheric Research states that any nuclear war on Earth can affect our planet for next 15 years. Moreover, experts warned that any unfortunate nuclear event can cause widescale destruction of food supplies and can trigger catastrophic climatic change.

Nuclear war can cause years of ozone depletion

study conducted by aforementioned institutions estimated resulting damage from nuclear warfares to nature and to planet overall, as per a report by Science Times. results of study stated that breakout of a nuclear war will heat planet up to stratosphere and result in a loss of 65-75% of ozone layer, which would take at least 15 years to heal. 

study furr revealed that during a nuclear event, smoke rising up in atmosphere could make ozone thinner, which would leave us exposed to harmful riations coming in from sun. It furr stated that recovery of ozone layer from such a catastrophic event might take over a dece’s time, given ozone does not undergo any furr damage due to human negligence.

But trouble doesn’t end here. smoke caused by a nuclear event will also trap harmful ultraviolet riation that would make planet a burning vessel. As a result, natural survival processes that plants and animals go through will be completely unbalanced, leing to destruction of food supplies and painful fatalities.

researchers reportedly arrived at se conclusions by developing a new approach that records and analyses climatic data. predictions might be nearly accurate as experts created a simulation of a nuclear-induced atmosphere using aerosol and nitric oxide compositions with prime motive of studying ozone depletion and trapping of Sun’s excessive UV light.
