The ozone layer in the Earth's stratosphere protects us from harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun. It absorbs much of the incoming UV radiation before it reaches the Earth's surface, helping to prevent damage to living organisms. The ozone layer is essential for maintaining life on Earth.

What is geographical radiation?
Geographical radiation refers to the distribution of radiation levels across a geographical area. It can vary due to factors such as altitude, latitude, proximity to sources of radiation, and geological composition of the area. Monitoring geographical radiation levels is important for assessing potential health risks and environmental impacts.
Why do radiation disaster affect a larger area than chemical disastersdo?
It's because radiation is 'made' to spread.
Intercepted solar radiation is called?
Insolation is intercepted solar radiation.
What would happen if the milky way black hole became active?
It would emit a lot of radiation. Some distant black holes (or more accurately, the area around the black holes) emit more radiation than an entire galaxy. Such black holes are known as quasars.
What do you call the movement of thermal energy from a warm area to a cool area?
There are three ways thermal energy can be transferred: conduction, convection, and radiation.
How are nuclear weapons unsafe?
If a nuclear weapon is set off not only will the area be destroyed completely the radiation will also spread around the world. (Depending how big the weapon was).
When was Caution Radiation Area created?
Caution Radiation Area was created in 1974.
Has camera radiation been detected in the area?
No, camera radiation has not been detected in the area.
What is the name of the area of charged particles around earth?
The area of charged particles around Earth is called the magnetosphere. It plays a crucial role in shielding the planet from solar wind and cosmic radiation.
Which area of the atmosphere protects the earth from meteorids?
the troposphere
How long will it take for radiation in chernobyl to fade?
It is estimated that it will take around 20,000 years for the area around Chernobyl to return to normal background radiation levels. However, the most dangerous radioactive isotopes decay much more quickly, significantly reducing radiation levels within the first few decades after the accident.
How high are the radiation levels in japan?
They are high enough to be concerned about in the immediate area around the reactors, but as compared to Chernobyl, they are minuscule. It fades to insignificance compared to the radiation caused by the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
What is Russia area?
Russia is around six and a half million square miles. It is the largest country in the world.
What is geographical radiation?
Geographical radiation refers to the distribution of radiation levels across a geographical area. It can vary due to factors such as altitude, latitude, proximity to sources of radiation, and geological composition of the area. Monitoring geographical radiation levels is important for assessing potential health risks and environmental impacts.
What is a rubber seal that protects the area of a connector where wires enter?
Grommet.
What is the pad of tissue that protects a womens pubic area?
mons pubis
Why is the radiation so intense in a region that traces Io's orbit around Jupiter?
The intense radiation in the region around Io's orbit in Jupiter is due to Jupiter's strong magnetic field interacting with charged particles emitted by Io. These particles get trapped in Jupiter's magnetosphere and create radiation belts, leading to high levels of radiation in that area.
