IR stands for Infrared radiation. Ozone has nothing to do with IR.


How heat waves travel through the ozone layer?

Heat waves do not travel through the ozone layer. Some infrared radiation passes through it, but "far infrared" does not. Ozone is a greenhouse gas.


Does the ozone layer absorb infrared radiation?

No it does not. It only protects against the UV rays.


Are infrared rays absorbed by the ozone layer and do they protect earth?

The ozone layer performs a unique role in absorbing UV-B from our Sun, a role no other common gas performs. Additionally, ozone absorbs uniquely a band of far infrared radiation, that otherwise has absolutely no harmful effects on life on Earth. Infrared presents no risk to life, but can serve to keep Earth warm. yes or no?


What does the ozone layer protect us from ultraviolet radiation?

The ozone layer is an elastic layer of ozone molecules. The UV radiations are the one coming from sun and absorbed by the ozone.

Does the ozone protect us from meteors and things like that?

The ozone layer protects only against ultraviolet radiation, it does not protect us from meteors.


How does the absorption of ultraviolet radiation by the ozone layer help sustain life-?

The absorption of ultraviolet radiation by the ozone layer help to sustain life because it helps to protect living things from damage of solar radiation.

What are two forms of radiation that are reduced by the atmosphere?

Ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by ozone in the ozone layer. Low-energy (long wavelength) radiation, including infrared, microwave, and radio waves, is typically deflected by atmospheric particles.
