Yes.
The amount of ozone between the Sun and the Earth's surface is a delicate balance between UV-C from the Sun, the host of contaminants that can block ozone production, the host of contaminants that can decay ozone (faster), the UV-B from the Sun that also destroys ozone, and time (ozone is unstable and decays).
That is why ozone is found near the region where oxygen is shattered by intense radiation, but not much above it. Water vapor below the thermocline at the top of the troposphere prevents ozone from surviving to reach Earth's surface.
There is not actually a hole in the ozone layer but it is the thinning of ozone layer below a certain level. However the ozone in the ozone layer gets depleted and repaired by itself through natural phenomenon. However due to the use of CFC's by the human beings the rate of depletion has increased than the rate of repairing and thus the levels of ozone are falling down at a continues rate.
The lithosphere is the hard, brittle outer layer of the Earth, comprised of the crust and uppermost mantle.
To keep us alive. Because the sun will burn out, and we most definitely need the sun for heat, crops, etc. A way to save the ozone layer is using non-polluting biodiesel instead of regular gasoline. Also, REUSE, REDUCE, RECYCLE! Reduce= Reduce the trash you make! The world is running out of space for garbage; most landfills are closing. Burning trash is not the solution, either. It still pollutes the air, which does NOT help our situation at all. How can we throw something away, when there is no away? Reuse= Whether its water bottles, newspaper, or even toilet paper rolls, we need to reuse everything possible. Cardboard, plastic, styrofoam, paper, ANYTHING! Recycle= The biggest "R" of the three. This means: convert waste into reusable material. Use the unused macaroni for a cute collage. Use those old wood scraps for a birdhouse. ANYTHING to help our ozone layer! ---- Ozone in the upper atmsophere is the only gas in our atmosphere that absorbs UV-B. UV-B will cause cancer and mutation in us and the organisms we depend on to live. Additionally, increasing UV-B decreases crop yields and can destroy land for use. So the ozone layer is necessary for life on the land, and near the ocean's surface. The double-speak above, referring to being good stewards of the Earth, presents no methods of "rebuilding" the ozone layer. We must stop adding water vapor and CFCs to the air, and stay vigilant for new compounds that we make that end up there and adversely affect the amount of ozone present.
Ozone is formed from oxygen. Oxygen molecules (O2)are broken apart by ultraviolet (UV-C) light from the Sun. This makes two single oxygen atoms, which are very reactive. Most single oxygen atoms recombine directly to for O2 again. Some single oxygen atoms are temporarily stored on nitrogen (N2) molecules, and ozone is formed when this "loose assembly" contacts an oxygen molecule. Some oxygen atoms interact more or less directly with an oxygen molecule to form ozone.
Oceans are part of the hydrosphere. The hydrosphere is all the water on Earth at any given moment.
Ozone in the ozone layer.
Depletion of ozone creates holes in ozone layer. Ozone layer blocks about 97% of the the total received by the earth. Ozone depletion will expose earth to harmful radiations and will burn the life. The temperature will increase and make earth inhabitable place.

No.There is only a ozone layer proctecting the earth from ultraviolet rays.
We are concerned with ozone because ozone layer blocks about 97% of the the total received by the earth. Ozone depletion will expose earth to harmful radiations and will burn the life. The temperature will increase and make earth inhabitable place.
Reduction of Uv rays can only be done by the ozone layer. Thus if we make steps to protect the ozone layer, there will be reduction of uv rays entering the earth.
Only ozone can make itself stronger. It will make ozone layer thick.
Ozone layer blocks about 97% of the the total received by the earth. Ozone depletion or ozone hole will expose earth to harmful radiations and will burn the life. The temperature will increase and make earth inhabitable place.

Ozone in troposphere is not created by UV. It is created by lightening.
We have to be cautious not to have a big ozone hole. It is because it will make UV radiation enter the earth.
