Where is the ozone layer thinist. Where is it thickest?

Answer 1

The ozone layer is at its thinnest in Antarctica where it is so thin it is called a hole. Temperatures at the South Pole are less than -80 Celsius during winter. There is some thinning at the North Pole, which is warmer.

Answer 2

It is Thinist at the equator, Thickest at the poles.

It is thinnest once at year at the pole that is experiencing late winter / early spring. It is thinnest year round at the equator. It is thickest near 23 north or south latitude in the summer (on average).

Answer 3

Ozone layer thinning is most pronounced over the poles because of a no of factors some of which are:

1) The CFC's released by humans are carried towards the poles by the westerlies or the westerly winds where they cause ozone depletion.

2) the poles are the regions having low temperature and the ozone depleting reactions are only carried in temperature below -2o temperature that is on the polar stratospheric clouds. This attainment of temperature as low as 2o is only possible on the poles

Answer 4

The ozone layer is thinnest over the poles, particularly over Antarctica, due to the presence of ozone-depleting substances. It is thickest over the tropics, where sunlight is most intense and ozone production is highest.

Answer 5

The troposphere is thickest over the equator and thinnest over the poles.

Answer 6

The ozone layer is part of the stratosphere that absorbs most of the ultraviolet radiation from the sun. It is thickest between 15 and 30 kilometers above the Earth's surface.

Answer 7

Ozone is thinnest at the poles. It is because of low temperature there.

Answer 8

Th ozone layer is thinner at the pols. It is because of the low temperature there.

Answer 9

The maximum thickness is at ozone layer. This layer in present in the stratospheric region of the atmosphere.
