If the ozone is removed from the upper atmosphere then the UV rays will enter the earth's urface. These UV rays are high frequency and are very harmful for life on earth.

What is the consequence if the ozone layer in the upper stratosphere were destroy?

If the atmosphere were destroyed, no life would be there. Mankind would extinct.


What would happen if all the ozone was removed from the earth's air suppy?

It would eventually lead to extinction. The reason being ozone is a protector for us in the atmosphere.


How would the presence of sulphate particles in the atmosphere moderate global warming?

They reflect sunlight into the upper atmosphere to counteract global warming. It would however delay the recovery of the ozone by decades.


What layer of earths atmosphere would be considered good ozone?

There is good ozone and then there is bad ozone. Good ozone is present in the earth's atmosphere.


What wavelengths of radiation from the sun does the upper atmosphere absorb?

The upper atmosphere absorbs harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. This absorption occurs mainly in the ozone layer, which absorbs UVB and UVC wavelengths. Absorption of these wavelengths protects life on Earth from the damaging effects of excessive UV radiation.


How does global warming accelerate ozone depletion?

It doesn't. They are unrelated. Ozone depletion is related to the release of fluorocarbons and chloroflourocarbons that make their way into the upper atmosphere. Essentially all of these chemicals are man-made. Global warming comes as a combination of natural effects (sun cycles, volcanic eruptions, etc.) and anthropogenic effects (carbon dioxide emissions, methane emissions, deforestation, etc.). Fluorocarbons and chloroflourocarbons might slightly increase global warming, but global warming has little to do with ozone depletion. There is a slight possibility that if the atmosphere is warmer that the rate of diffusion of ozone depleting chemicals from the lower atmosphere into the upper atmosphere (where they influence ozone creation and destruction) might increase - but at the same time a warmer atmosphere would inhibit the formation of ice crystals in the upper atmosphere which are important as sites where the ozone depleting reactions occur, so the two effects would largely offset each other.


If the US had a reading of 350 DU how many mm of ozone would there be?

The ozone layer extends from about 10 km to 50 km altitude, and there is some ozone (perhaps small amounts) all the way from the surface of the Earth to the upper edge of the atmosphere, so there are hundreds of kilometers of atmosphere containing ozone. The DU measurement says there is an equivalent to 3.5 mm of pure ozone at STP. Which is not physically possible to achieve in Nature.


What it is important to months the ozone levelsin the atmosphere?

It is important to maintain ozone level. It is because without ozone, no life would survive.


What would happen to the ozone layer if ozone was being made in the atmosphere?

Ozone is continually made by the Sun. Ozone made at Earth's surface does not survive to reach the ozone layer.


What is the layerof the atmosphere where you would find the ozone layer?

A majority of the layers have ozone. But the layer you would find the most is in the Stratosphere. It is a proven fact that this layer has the most ozone.


What is a reduction in the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere most likely to lead to?

would it be damage to the planets tissues by ultraviolet radiation, rapid global warming, a decrease in rainfall or an increase in acid rainfall


What would happen if there for no ozone layer?

you would die the atmosphere would burn and than you would die
