No, there was no water near the ozone layer. The ozone layer has been protecting from the UV on it's own.

Is it true that aside from the ozone layer the earth is also protected by water just before the ozone layer?
No. It is too cold for water "just before" the ozone layer. Might be a bit of ice crystals, but they would only reflect some light into space, and not really interact with energetic radiation.
We all know that Ozone layer has a hole is it possible to make an artificial Ozone layer above it so we are well protected?
No, we cannot make an ozone layer above it, below it, and we can't fill it in. We just have to stop dumping things into the atmosphere.There is too much energy above the ozone layer to let ozone survive.There is too much water vapor below the ozone layer to let ozone survive.We'd burn up all our fossil fuels trying to get ozone "up there", which would destroy more ozone than we ever made.
What technology do you have to protect the earth from the sun?
This "severe burning sunlight" is ultraviolet radiation. The ozone layer is located in the stratosphere, and protects Earth from this radiation. Without it, life on earth would not exist as we know it today.
Why is the ozone layer important to the earth?
Blocks harmful UV rays from the sun. Holds in our atmosphere like a skin. UV rays from the sun can cause cancer to our body. Without the sun's ozone layer the temperature in the earth will increase and there will be more droughts, hurricanes, and the water temperature in the sea and the lakes will increase(get hotter) -EpIkErIc-
How does the ozone layer affects the land?
the ozone layer affects earth lands because it can kill many plants and animals by the UV radiation. It can make our land dry and evaporate water. it changes earth climate and weather depending on how much UV radiation we have.
How did the ozone layer move animals to land from water?
It didn't. The ozone layer permitted plants and animals to move from the deep water to the water's surface, and eventually to land.
In what ways does the use of water affect the ozone layer?
Water if used in limit does not affect ozone. If used more, it affects the ozone.
What absorbs energy from the sun in the atmosphere?
Ozone, water vapor, carbon dioxide, clouds, dust, and other gases absorb energy in the atmosphere.
What are the differences between Mars and the earth?
For one the Earth and has an ozone layer and Mars does not. Also, the Earth can have water in all three states: liquid, gas, and solid. On Mars only frozen water has been found.
What benefits does Earth's atmousphere provide?
It traps heat and keeps us warm, and the ozone layer sheilds Earth from UV radiation, it also prevents water from vaporizing off Earth
What are the effects of ozone?
Ozone is present in the stratosphere of the earth's atmosphere. It protects us from the harmful UV light of the sun. The ozone present in the ground layer is harmful as it is the major constituent of the earth's atmosphere.
Why are chloroflourocarbons harmful to the environment?
it is because when they deplete the ozone layer they attributes to the increasing of the ozone hole and allow the ultraviolet rays to reach the earth. due to ozone depletion, not only temperature increases but also level of water that result into floods.
