What else can I help you with?
What planet has an atmosphere that includes a layer of ozone?
Earth has an atmosphere that includes a layer of ozone, known as the ozone layer, which is located in the stratosphere. The ozone layer plays a crucial role in absorbing harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun.
What is the protective layer of the atmosphere destroyed by CFC's?
The protective layer of the atmosphere that is destroyed by CFCs is the ozone layer. CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) break down ozone molecules, leading to ozone depletion. This thinning of the ozone layer allows more harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun to reach the Earth's surface, posing risks to human health and the environment.
What layer does sunlight strikes first?
The Earth's layer that sunlight strikes first is the ozone layer.
What runs on the top of the troposphere?
That would be the 2nd layer, the stratosphere layer with the ozone at top.
What level of the atmosphere contains the ozone layer?
The Stratosphere
Can the ozone layer repair itself if you reduce green house gases?
Probably.The ozone layer is constantly repairing itself. When ozone absorbs energetic radiation, it breaks down. Only a few greenhouse gases affect the average concentration of ozone. The biggest one is water vapor.
The postulate that the hole in the ozone layer will repair itself is ridiculous?
assumption
Can the ozne lair repair itself?
Ozone layer, yes can repair itself. However without the disturbance of man made ODS's.
How do you increase the ozone layer by spreading co2?
Carbon dioxide, CO2, has very little to do with the ozone layer. The ozone layer will repair itself if we stop damaging it, which we have, by banning CFCs, chlorofluorocarbon gases, the chlorine of which was destroying the ozone molecules. Scientists hope the ozone layer will be completely restored by 2060.
What can be done to repair the hole in the ozone layer?
In order to repair the ozone layer, we must decrease the use of ozone depleting substances. These are the ones containing CFC's which deplete the ozone layer.
Is it possible for the ozone layer to recover from global warming?
Yes, it is possible for the ozone layer to recover from global warming. This can be done by stopping the emission of greenhouse gases.
Does lightning repair the ozone?
No, lightning does not repair the ozone layer. Lightning can actually contribute to the depletion of ozone by producing nitrogen oxides, which are ozone-depleting substances. The ozone layer is repaired naturally through complex chemical processes over time.
How ozone layer recover in summer in south poles?
Ozone layer forms in summer. therefore it initiates its recovery at that time.
Is there still hope for the separation of the ozone layer?
Maybe ========================== Did the person that ask this question mean "healing of the ozone layer" or "repair of the ozone layer", instead of "separation"?
Does the ozone layer repair itself in the summer storms?
No. The ozone layer is unaffected by storms that happen "miles" below it. The ozone hole closes when sunlight with UV-C finally makes it to that region of the atmosphere and ozone is made, rather than diffusing in from regions that do get UV-C.
What happens when a meteor hits the ozone layer?
When a meteor hits the ozone layer, it can cause localized heating and disruption of the ozone molecules. This can lead to a temporary thinning of the ozone layer in that specific area, which may allow more harmful UV radiation to reach the Earth's surface. Over time, the ozone layer can repair itself and return to its normal state.
What can countries do to help the ozone layer recover?
They can get together and agree to stop producing CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). They did this already in Montreal in 1987, and the ozone layer is now healing itself and scientists hope if will be fully recovered by 2050, if we don't discover another destroying chemical.
