The ozone layer is located in the stratosphere which is 30 miles above the Earth's surface.
The atmosphere on earth is the layer of air that we all breathe. It is composed of 4 main layers. Closest to the earth and extending about 7.5 miles up is the troposphere, where all of the earth's weather takes place. From 7.5 miles to 21.1 miles is the stratosphere. From 21.1 miles to 49.7 miles is the mesosphere. And from 49.7 miles to 195 miles is the thermosphere. The areas where one layer ends and the other layer begins is known as a pause, such as the tropopause, where the troposphere and stratosphere meet.
The zone - or layer - that sits above the stratosphere is the mesosphere. This layer extends from about 50 km (or 31 miles) to around 85 km (or 53 miles) above the surface of the Earth. The mesosphere is where meteors will burn up as they enter the atmosphere. The temperature of this layer decreases with height.
The Stratosphere. If this is for an ASE test, good luck to you.
The layer that is 30 to 50 miles is ozone. It is a protective layer.
Stratosphere is 10 - 20 miles above earth and contains the ozone layer.
stratosphereThe atmospheric layer above the troposphere is the stratosphere. It extends to about 30-35 miles above the earth's surface, and is the most stable layer.
The ozone layer is in the lower stratosphere, and occurs between 12 and 19 miles above the Earth.
Space begins approximately 62 miles above the Earth; an area known as the Karman Line.

Each layer of atmosphere around the Earth is found at different heights. The Troposphere is found at 4 to 12 miles, or 23,000 to 65,000 feet above the Earth.

The ionosphere is a layer of earths atmosphere. It is charged with a high concentration of ions. It is above the mesosphere about 50 t0 600 miles above the earth.
The layer that is 30 to 50 miles is ozone. It is a protective layer.
Yes, the ozone layer is above the clouds. It's up in the lower stratosphere, about 12-19 miles (20-30 km) above Earth. There are very high polar clouds that are higher than this, but most clouds are in the troposphere where the highest clouds (in the polar regions) are about 2 - 5 miles (3 - 8 km) above Earth.
