What are the natural processes that cause the hole in the ozone layer?
N2146X
The natural processes that cause an ozone hole are (in rough order): # time and temperature (ozone is unstable, and decays back to oxygen) # water vapor (works without applied UV, as it adds a decay path for ozone) #2 is why the Antarctic ozone hole is larger than the Arctic ozone hole. Earth's magnetic field is currently aligned to direct positive ions of the solar wind to the south pole. Most of these are hydrogen nucelii, which oxidize (eventually) to water vapor.

Causes of ozone layer?
Ozone layer is caused by natural processes. It is formed by UV.
How does ozone layer created?
Ozone layer is created by natural processes. UV and thunder are some of them.
Describe the thinning of the ozone layer?
The thinning of ozone layer is the depletion of ozone molecules. It is caused by various man made and natural processes.
What is hole in the ozone layer?
The hole in the ozone layer is the falling of the concentration of the ozone layer below a certain concentration. It is caused by various man made and natural processes.
How are the ozone layer holes caused?
Ozone holes are the thinning of ozone molecules. This is caused by man made or natural processes.
Why is the ozone layer a natural cycle?
The ozone is a natural cycle. It is because various factors that cause ozone depletion also replenish it.
The breakdown of the ozone layer is promoted by the emission into the atmosphere of?
Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gases used in refrigeration
Does a whole in the ozone layer caused by natural processes?
No it is not. It is caused by man made CFC's.
What are causes of the hole in the ozone layer?
Ozone hole is created by natural and man made processes. Man made are CFC's.
Does chlorine released from natural sources cause ozone depletion?
Yes it does. Chlorine depletes the ozone layer.
What is depletion of Ozone Layer?
See "What is the depletion of the ozone layer?" in the "Related questions" section below.
How is your influences on the ozone layer different than natural destruction of the ozone atom?
The man made chemicals, CFCs or chlorofluorocarbons are influence on the Ozone layer. CFCs are use in aerosol propellants, refrigerants, foams, and industrial processes.
