Ozone is only useful in the stratosphere, where it blocks about 98% of ultraviolet radiation. This radiation is very harmful to human and plant health. Ozone has been disappearing in stratosphere as a result of chemicals humans have been releasing, though the hole appears to be leveling off now as many of these chemicals have been banned for 20 years.
What else can I help you with?
Why is ozone described as hazardous at ground level but helpful in the upper atmosphere?
Ozone is described as hazardous at ground level but helpful in the upper atmosphere because at ground level, ozone is poisonous but, in the upper atmosphere, it protects us from the sun's radiation.
What layer has the most concentration of ozone?
The stratosphere does, though there is also ozone near the surface. Stratospheric ozone is natural and helpful, keeping most ultraviolet rays out of the atmosphere. Without it, life on earth would not exist as we know it.
How is ozone concentration maintained in the atmosphere?
The ozone concentration is maintained in atmosphere by UV. They create and deplete ozone.
What layer of earths atmosphere would be considered good ozone?
There is good ozone and then there is bad ozone. Good ozone is present in the earth's atmosphere.
Explain how ozone is helpful in the atmosphere?
Ozone in the atmosphere helps to protect life on Earth by absorbing and filtering out harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. This ozone layer prevents most of the sun's harmful UV rays from reaching the Earth's surface, reducing the risk of skin cancer, cataracts, and other health issues in humans and animals.
Is Ozone atmosphere harmful?
No, it is not, Ozone is actually very helpful.
In what layer of the atmosphere is the ozone helpful to humans?
Helpful in the stratosphere, harmful in the troposphere.
Is ozone a dangerous gas at the surface but helpful in the upper part of the atmosphere?
Yes, ozone at the ground level is a pollutant while ozone in the atmosphere protects us from the harmful radiations of the sun.
How is the ozone in the upper atmosphere is helpful too life on the earth?
Ozone in upper atmosphere absorbs the UV rays. These UV rays are fatal for life on earth.
Why is ozone described as hazardous at ground level but helpful in the upper atmosphere?
Ozone is described as hazardous at ground level but helpful in the upper atmosphere because at ground level, ozone is poisonous but, in the upper atmosphere, it protects us from the sun's radiation.
What is a greenhouse gas that is helpful high in the atmosphere but is pollutant on the ground?
Ozone, which blocks ultraviolet A and B high in the atmosphere, but is toxic to animal life when close to the ground.
Is the atmosphere part of the ozone?
No it is not. ozone is part of atmosphere.
What is the ozone layer of your atmosphere?
The ozone is the triatomic form of ozone. It is present in the form of ozone layer in the atmosphere.
How is the ozone related to the atmosphere?
The ozone is present in the atmosphere as ozone layer. It is present as a pool of ozone molecules.
Which atmosphere has a ozone layer in it?
The stratosphere region of atmosphere has the ozone. It is present as the ozone layer.
Does ozone rise or fall in the atmosphere?
Ozone rises in the atmosphere.
Where in the atmosphere is ozone undesirable?
The ozone is undesirable in the tropospheric region of the atmosphere. It is termed as ground ozone.
