How much radiation is absorbed by oxygen and ozone?

UV-B radiation is uniquely absorbed by the ozone layer. Most of the more energetic solar radiation has been absorbed by other atmospheric constituents before the ozone layer. The atmosphere stops the classical alpha, beta and gamma radiations. Neutrons decay with time, and are also slowed a bit. Muons make it all the way to Earth's surface, as do many cosmic rays (mostly protons).


What effects does the amount of ozone in your atmosphere have?

The amount of ozone in atmosphere determine s the % of solar radiation that will be absorbed. The absorbtion of radiation is proportional to the concentration of ozone.
