Article Synopsis
  • The study examines how the 2020 ozone depletion in the Arctic impacted ozone levels in central and southern Europe using data from six ground-based stations between 79 and 42°N.
  • At the northernmost site (Ny-Ålesund), ozone levels dropped by 45% at the beginning of April but returned to normal by the end of the month; the decrease in ozone was lower (15%) by the time measurements were made at 42°N (Rome).
  • The findings suggest that the changes in ozone at southern stations mirrored those in the Arctic with a lag in timing, leading to increased UV radiation exposure in May, particularly noted at Aosta (46°N).

The celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Piedmont flood was organized by the University of Piemonte Orientale in Alessandria, a town that was severely affected in November 1994. It has been an opportunity to reexamine the meteorological event and assess the potential of CNR-ISAC models, after more than 20 years of development, to accurately simulate the heavy precipitation at different lead times. The predictability of this extreme event has been studied on a wide range of space and time scales, from subseasonal to convection resolving, using a variety of model setups and initial conditions.
