Long term effects of ozone depltion?
Long term effects of ozone layer are many. These include global warming, floods, less food etc.
What is the term used for ozone layer thin or holes?
Ozone hole is the term. It is the thinning of ozone layer.
What is the term ozone hole?
a hole in the ozone layer.
What is the possible long-term consequencesf the depletion of ozone layer?
Ozone depletion could cause loss of mankind. It would lead to no life.
What is the term for the thinning of the ozone layer over the poles?
The ozone hole.
Why is the term ozone layer somewhat misleading?
The term "ozone layer" can be misleading because it implies that ozone exists in a distinct, separate layer in the atmosphere. In reality, ozone is present throughout the stratosphere in varying concentrations. So, it's more accurate to think of the ozone layer as a region of the stratosphere with higher concentrations of ozone rather than a single, uniform layer.
What is meant by the term the depletionn of the ozone layer?
Depletion is the thinning of ozone layer. It is due to man made CFC's.
How long will the ozone layer last?
The magic 8 ball says: "My sources say No." No one knows where that particular "feature" is going. The record largest ozone hole was 2007, and the ozone hole for 2008 was not much smaller. The amount of UV-B that arrives at Earth's surface varies by year, and by 11 year solar cycle. Effects that are believed to be closely tied to the amount of UV-B that arrives on Earth's surface show a long-term upward trend. Plants absorb water vapor, and produce oxygen. What we do to plants, we do to the ozone layer (as much as we do anything to the ozone layer).
What is the term ozone depletion?
The ozone depletion is the term described for thinning of ozone layer. This depletion is very harmful for life on earth.
What is the term for gases pro ducted by aerosols and manufacturing that destroy the earth's ozone layer?
The term for gases produced by aerosols and manufacturing that destroy the Earth's ozone layer is "ozone-depleting substances." Examples include chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and halons. These substances break down ozone molecules in the stratosphere, leading to the thinning of the ozone layer.
Are nuclear weapons harmful to the ozone?
Nuclear weapons do not directly harm the ozone layer. The main environmental impact of nuclear weapons comes from the radioactive fallout and long-term radiation effects on the environment and living organisms, rather than ozone depletion.
Is the atmosphere ozone increasing?
Ozone in the ozone layer appears to be decreasing long term, with significant variations annually, every ~11 years, and even every ~121 years. See link below.
